fsidd listens on an abstract UNIX domain socket which has no
filesystem-level access control.  Any local unprivileged user can
connect and issue mutating commands (get_or_create_fsidnum) that
grow the reexport database without limit, degrading mountd
performance.

Add a SO_PEERCRED check to reject connections from non-root
clients.  The only legitimate client is mountd, which runs as root.

Fixes: 6fd2732d ("export: Add fsidd")

* [PATCH 1/3] libtirpc: Fix use-after-free in xdr_pmaplist() XDR_FREE path

The XDR_FREE loop saved a pointer to the pml_next field inside the
struct being freed (next = &((*rp)->pml_next)), then dereferenced it
on the next iteration. This reads freed memory.

Adopt the same pattern xdr_rpcblist_ptr() already uses: save the
value of the next pointer before freeing, then point rp at a stack
copy.

xdr_pmaplist(), xdr_rpcblist_ptr() and xdr_rpcb_entry_list_ptr()
decode linked lists with no upper bound on element count. A malicious
server can stream arbitrarily many list nodes, forcing unbounded heap
allocation in any client that decodes the response (rpcinfo,
rpcb_getmaps() callers).

xdr_rpc_gss_unwrap_data() passes (u_int)-1 as maxsize to
xdr_rpc_gss_buf() for all three decode calls (databody_integ,
checksum, databody_priv). This disables the length check in
xdr_bytes(), allowing a fabricated length field in a small RPC
message to trigger a multi-GB allocation before GSS verification.

Replace (u_int)-1 with RPCSEC_GSS_MAX_UNWRAP (16 MB). The encode
path already uses bounded values (wrapbuf.length + RPC_SLACK_SPACE).
