Samba 4.21.4 has been released and represents the most recent stable version in the Samba 4.21 release series. The update addresses several issues, including the degradation of sharesec performance when handling a large number of registry shares, the identification of a memory leak in kerberos_decode_pac, and the capability to create Group Policy Objects (GPOs) that can be applied to multiple groups. The 'crypt' module has been substituted in python/samba/netcmd/user/readpasswords/common.py. Additional corrections involve vfs_gpfs improperly altering timestamps, spotlight search results failing to display file size and creation date, and net offlinejoin not functioning as intended.
