CVE-2026-89550
EUVD-2026-7646111.09.2026, 20:19
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: svcauth_gss: enforce krb5 token minimum length
svcauth_gss_unwrap_priv() validates only an upper bound on the
wire-supplied opaque length before handing the buffer to
gss_unwrap():
if (len > xdr_stream_remaining(xdr))
goto unwrap_failed;
offset = xdr_stream_pos(xdr);
...
maj_stat = gss_unwrap(ctx, offset, offset + len, buf);
The wire value `len` flows unchanged as the upper bound into the
krb5 unwrap path, so a len in [0, 16] passes this check and is
handed to gss_unwrap(). For a krb5 v2 context that lands in
gss_krb5_unwrap_v2(), which reads the 16-byte RFC 4121 token
header fields at ptr+4 and ptr+6 and then calls rotate_left()
before any integrity check. With a sub-header length the header
reads run past the token, and _rotate_left()'s `shift %= buf->len`
path can divide by zero when buf->len has been driven to zero by
the truncated token. A header-only token (len == 16) is equally
invalid: with a non-zero RRC field and the opaque blob ending at
the XDR buffer boundary, rotate_left() builds a zero-length
subbuffer, reaching the same division.
Reject the token at the server entry point before it reaches the
krb5 unwrap core. A valid sealed RFC 4121 token must contain
the 16-byte header plus at least some encrypted payload.
Fix by adding a minimum-length check immediately after the
existing upper-bound check:
if (len <= GSS_KRB5_TOK_HDR_LEN)
goto unwrap_failed;EnginsightAwaiting analysis
