Windows Patch for RPC Sealing and Samba for ReadyNAS 4220S
I have a ReadyNAS 4220S running 6.9.3 that is being used for SMB shares. The problem we just found out is that Microsoft is patching RPC authentication to stop RPC Signing and only allow RPC Seal...
The patch from Microsoft will be applied next month and was hoping someone might know if ReadyNAS 4220S is or will be patched and is or is not vulnerable to having issues with the change by Microsoft.
Hello JayLim77
And welcome to the NETGEAR Community! 🙂
Yes, Microsoft have released its initial security deployment it is in initial deployment phase and it is released in Nov 8 2022.
And as you mentioned the patch will be enforced soon.
And ReadyNAS updated firmware version is 6.10.8 and it will not probably update the version in near future.
Please keep the device in the updated firmware to avoid the vulnerabilities.
Probably it is will not affect the NAS in which the change by the Microsoft.

Your best answer is probably it won't affect the NAS? That just won't do. From what I have read, it very much will affect anyone using AD integration to access the NAS, which I assume the original poster is doing.
Thanks Sandshark that is exactly what I am doing.
The ReadyNAS is connected to AD and using security groups for its SMB Shares.
We have worked with Synology, NetApp, Hitachi HNAS, 45Drives with TrueNAS, and Samba based Unix-like systems. All of them are jumping in to get a fix out, or already have, before the change is applied in July by Microsoft.
This is a major issue as all access will be lost by AD based users. From the response it looks like Netgear does not have fix for ReadyNAS and that will mean any and all of these systems connected to AD will stop working.
