For a krb5 v2 context that lands in\ngss_krb5_unwrap_v2(), which reads the 16-byte RFC 4121 token\nheader fields at ptr+4 and ptr+6 and then calls rotate_left()\nbefore any integrity check. With a sub-header length the header\nreads run past the token, and _rotate_left()'s `shift %= buf->len`\npath can divide by zero when buf->len has been driven to zero by\nthe truncated token. A header-only token (len == 16) is equally\ninvalid: with a non-zero RRC field and the opaque blob ending at\nthe XDR buffer boundary, rotate_left() builds a zero-length\nsubbuffer, reaching the same division.\n\nReject the token at the server entry point before it reaches the\nkrb5 unwrap core. A valid sealed RFC 4121 token must contain\nthe 16-byte header plus at least some encrypted payload.\n\nFix by adding a minimum-length check immediately after the\nexisting upper-bound check:\n\n    if (len <= GSS_KRB5_TOK_HDR_LEN)\n            goto unwrap_failed;"

That peer path is the highest-severity reachability.\nUI:N - nfsd unwraps the Call in the service thread with no local user action. On the client, the NFSv4.0 GSS callback path runs from the callback service thread once an NFS/RPCSEC_GSS mount exists; no additional mount, click, or open is required at attack time.\nS:U - The out-of-bounds accesses, divide-by-zero, and underflowed memmove corrupt host kernel SUNRPC/GSS state on the machine processing the RPC. This is ordinary same-host kernel impact, not a VM escape, IOMMU bypass, or other changed-scope boundary.\nC:H - Short tokens make gss_krb5_unwrap_v2() read EC/RRC past the token, and the dead BUG_ON lets unsigned movelen underflow into a ~UINT_MAX-byte memmove that copies kernel memory beyond the receive head; that unbounded read is C:H per kernel CNA memory-corruption guidance.\nI:H - The same underflowed memmove() writes near 4GiB through the RPC receive head, an out-of-bounds write exploitable for control-flow hijack. rotate_left() also ignores xdr_buf_subsegment() failure after u32 wrap and then writes through a subbuf whose length has wrapped.\nA:H - _rotate_left() does shift %= buf->len on a zero-length subbuffer (header-only token at the XDR boundary), a divide-by-zero oops/panic; the UINT_MAX memmove and wrapped-length rotate loop hang or oops nfsd/callback threads, and the attacker can repeat the RPC to deny service."
