Andrew Deason 00a1b266af OPENAFS-SA-2024-003: xdr: Avoid prealloc'd string OUT args
CVE-2024-10397

Currently, several callers call RPCs with string OUT arguments, and
provide preallocated memory for those arguments. This can easily allow a
response from the server to overrun the allocated buffer, stomping over
stack or heap memory.

We could simply make our preallocated buffers larger than the maximum
size that the RPC allows, but relying on that is error prone, and
there's no way for XDR to check if a string buffer is large enough.

Instead, to make sure we don't overrun a given preallocated buffer,
avoid giving a preallocated buffer to such RPCs, and let XDR allocate
the memory for us.

Specifically, this commit changes several callers to
RXAFS_GetVolumeStatus(), and one caller of BOZO_GetInstanceParm(), to
avoid passing in a preallocated string buffer.

All other callers of RPCs with string OUT args already let XDR allocate
the buffers for them.

access all of the files stored in a network of computers as easily as
they access the files stored on their local machines. The file system is
called distributed for this exact reason: files can reside on many
different machines, but are available to users on every machine.
