The issue is the file permission
If you look at the ls output indicating there is a "s" in the group.
rwxr-sr-x
The "s" in the group position indicates that when you execute this program, your group is changed to the owner of this program. From your description, the exe is probably trying to access something that is only accessable by users defined to be in the original owners group.
The detailed descriptions of the issue you are having can be found in sgid file permission.

gpasswd
GPASSWD(1) General Commands Manual GPASSWD(1)
NAME
gpasswd - administer the /etc/group file
SYNOPSIS
gpasswd group
gpasswd -a user group
gpasswd -d user group
gpasswd -R group
gpasswd -r group
gpasswd [-A user,...] [-M user,...] group
DESCRIPTION
gpasswd is used to administer the /etc/group file (and /etc/gshadow file if compiled with SHADOWGRP defined). Every group can have adminis-
trators, members and a password. System administrator can use -A option to define group administrator(s) and -M option to define members
and has all rights of group administrators and members.
Group administrator can add and delete users using -a and -d options respectively. Administrators can use -r option to remove group pass-
word. When no password is set only group members can use newgrp(1) to join the group. Option -R disables access to the group through new-
grp(1) command.
gpasswd called by a group administrator with group name only prompts for the group password. If password is set the members can still new-
grp(1) without a password, non-members must supply the password.
FILES
/etc/group - group information
/etc/gshadow - shadow group information
