[PATCH] SUNRPC: fix oversized GSS proxy token copy

From: Jérémy Jean

Date: Thu Sep 10 2026 - 08:53:45 EST


gss_read_proxy_verf() allocates one page per token chunk, but it copies the
entire linear head of an RPC request into in_token->pages[0]. A UDP datagram
can leave more than PAGE_SIZE bytes in the linear head, so a large
RPCSEC_GSS INIT token overwrites following pages.

Copy the linear head in page-sized chunks before switching to the request
page array. The linear head itself can span multiple pages.
