krb5: Fix two NegoEx parsing vulnerabilities

Bring in upstream commit 2e75f0d93 fixing two CVEs. Upstream commit
log is:

 In parse_nego_message(), check the result of the second call to
 vector_base() before dereferencing it.  In parse_message(), check for
 a short header_len to prevent an integer underflow when calculating
 the remaining message length.

 Reported by Cem Onat Karagun.

 CVE-2026-40355:

 In MIT krb5 release 1.18 and later, if an application calls
 gss_accept_sec_context() on a system with a NegoEx mechanism
 registered in /etc/gss/mech, an unauthenticated remote attacker can
 trigger a null pointer dereference, causing the process to terminate.

 CVE-2026-40356:

 In MIT krb5 release 1.18 and later, if an application calls
 gss_accept_sec_context() on a system with a NegoEx mechanism
 registered in /etc/gss/mech, an unauthenticated remote attacker can
 trigger a read overrun of up to 52 bytes, possibly causing the process
 to terminate.  Exfiltration of the bytes read does not appear
 possible.
