In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto/krb5, rxrpc: Fix lack of pre-decrypt/pre-verify length checks Change the krb5 crypto library to provide facilities to precheck the length of the message about to be decrypted or verified. Fix AF_RXRPC to make use of this to validate DATA packets secured with RxGK.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's `krb5` crypto library and `AF_RXRPC` component. This vulnerability arises from a lack of proper length checks before decrypting or verifying incoming messages. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending specially crafted messages, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) condition where the system becomes unavailable.
