NFS Credential Too Large
This protocol anomaly is an NFS packet with authorization credentials that are too long. The NFS RFC specifies 400 bytes as the credential data maximum.
Extended Description
If the anomalous authentication credentials are submitted for authentication, the server could fail to process an exception condition and cause a buffer overflow. Malicious code may also be executed with the privileges of the server.
