You can't, 2.2.5 is ancient and unsupported by the Samba Team since
long.
That said I have patches that apply to 2.2.12, but they depends on other
security patches as well as this was a backport for RedHat AS 2.1

If you can't switch to a 3.0.24/25 release you should probably be able
to fetch the src.rpm of the AS 2.1 sources and recompile it with the
patches provided there.

Simo.
