Please upgrade to a supported version. See

https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_Release_Planning

for a list of supported Samba releases.

From the RPM names it seems you are using RHEL. So your alternative
route is to contact RedHat and open a support case. Your third option
is to contact someone from

https://www.samba.org/samba/support/

for paid support.

With best regards,
