From d4b69a6186b215d2dc1ebcab965ed88e8d41768d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joshua Rogers linux@joshua.hu Date: Fri, 7 Nov 2025 10:05:33 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] SUNRPC: svcauth_gss: avoid NULL deref on zero length gss_token in gss_read_proxy_verf
A zero length gss_token results in pages == 0 and in_token->pages[0] is NULL. The code unconditionally evaluates page_address(in_token->pages[0]) for the initial memcpy, which can dereference NULL even when the copy length is 0. Guard the first memcpy so it only runs when length > 0.
