Subject: [PATCH] crypto/openssl: fix use-after-free bug and cleanup
Date: Thu, 28 May 2026 13:28:22 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260528075822.2206494-1-psenapati@marvell.com> (raw)

params is freed before it is used by
EVP_PKEY_decapsulate_init() causing a
use-after-free issue. Pass NULL to
EVP_PKEY_decapsulate_init() instead of params
to avoid it.

Add resource cleanup for all error paths in the ML-KEM
decapsulate handler and consolidate cleanup into
two goto labels err_pkey and err_decap.

Fixes: 5f761d7b60 ("crypto/openssl: support ML-KEM and ML-DSA")
