Subject: [PATCH v8 3/5] s390/zcrypt: Improve EP11 CPRB length and overflow checks
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2026 16:39:26 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260729143928.191969-4-freude@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260729143928.191969-1-freude@linux.ibm.com>

The xcrb_msg_to_type6_ep11cprb_msgx() function lacks proper input
validation, creating security vulnerabilities:
1. Missing minimum size validation: The ep11_cprb structure and
   subsequent payload fields (pld_tag, pld_lenfmt) are copied from
   userspace without verifying sufficient buffer length.
2. Arithmetic overflow in length calculations: CEIL4 alignment could
   overflow, bypassing size checks and enabling buffer overflows.
3. The payload is asn1 encoded but the function just uses a simple c
   struct overlay to access some fields of the payload.

Fix by using size_t for length calculations, adding U32_MAX boundary
checks after alignment, and validating minimum request size and
minimum reply size before copying from userspace. Do a very simple
asn1 parsing of the payload up to the function value field.
