CVE-2026-1933 is an improper access-control vulnerability in Samba reparse-point operations introduced with reparse-point support in Samba 4.21. Samba failed to enforce SMB share-level and read-only-handle access checks before setting or deleting NTFS-style reparse-point metadata. Consequently, an authenticated user who has write permission in the underlying filesystem can modify reparse-point metadata through SMB despite accessing an export configured with "read only = yes" or using a read-only file handle. Affected releases include Samba 4.21.x, 4.22.x through 4.22.9, 4.23.x through 4.23.7, and 4.24.x through 4.24.2.
