(here "occasionally" means for certain users in certain realms). In lib/krb5/v4_glue.c, in the routine storage_to_etext the ticket is padded to a multiple of 8 bytes. If it is already a multiple of 8 bytes, 8 additional 0-bytes are added. This catches the AFS krb4 ticket decoder by surprise: unless the ticket is exactly 56 bytes, it only supports the minimum necessary padding. It detects the superfluous padding by comparing the ticket length decoded to the advertised ticket length. Hence a 7-letter userid in "cern.ch" which resulted in a ticket of 40 bytes, got "padded" to 48 bytes which the rxkad decoder rejected.
