Computer/hostname change after Catalina 10.15.4 supplemental update

Hello.. I've just installed todays supplemental update on two Macs. The computername, hostname and localhostname have been changed to iMac and MacBook Pro, instead of their designated names. I've also lost permissions granted through Active Directory group membership. Any other enterprise users getting the same?

iMac with Retina 5K display, macOS 10.15

Also had same issue. Just today (27 May) installed the Catalina 10.15.5 update and now my hostname and localhostname no longer has unique computer name, changed name to iMac. I am unable to make changes to the computer name (ghosted out). Have 2 computer labs with Retina 5K 27-inch iMac 2017. Apparently, this issue has been on-going on since Apr 9 and still no fix. Apple please help!
