commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=5a9a95d0eb15c189f1361c12c105eb0ba8842c77
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Commit 954509f added a security fix for CVE-2017-8779, involving
pairing all svc_getargs() calls with svc_freeargs() to avoid a memory
leak.  However it also introduced a couple of issues:

- The call to svc_freeargs() from rpcbproc_callit_com() may result in
  an attempt to free static memory, resulting in undefined behaviour.

- A typo in the svc_freeargs() call from pmapproc_dump() causes NIS
  (aka ypbind) to fail.

Backport upstream fixes for these issues to version 0.2.3.

+Subject: [PATCH] rpcbproc_callit_com: Stop freeing a static pointer
+
+commit 7ea36ee introduced a svc_freeargs() call
+that ended up freeing static pointer.
+
+It turns out the allocations for the rmt_args
+is not necessary . The xdr routines (xdr_bytes) will
+handle the memory management and the largest
+possible message size is UDPMSGSIZE (due to UDP only)
+which is smaller than RPC_BUF_MAX
