It's not going to fail, because it's perfectly legal per the protocol.
And the new SMB3 extension to perform pre-encryption of RDMA payload
is not a solution, because it's only supported by one server (Windows
22H2) and in any case it does not alter the transfer model. The client
will see the same two-part response (headers in the inline portion,
data via RDMA), so this same code will be entered when processing it.

I think David's change is on the right track because it actually
processes the response. I'm a little bit skeptical of the got_bytes
override however, still digging into that.

Sorry, what's the security problem? Both the client and server appear
to be implementing the protocol itself correctly.

Tom.
