Subject: [PATCH v1 2/3] s390/crypto: Fix missing scrub of temp buffers with PAES algorithm
Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2026 16:21:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260814142200.65821-3-freude@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260814142200.65821-1-freude@linux.ibm.com>

In function ctr_paes_do_crypt() there is a buffer used to process
remaining bytes < AES_BLOCK_SIZE. This buffer was not scrubbed and
thus could lead to expose of unwanted data. When the buffer is used
explicitly scrub it at the end of the code block to avoid exposure of
maybe sensitive data.

In function __xts_2keys_prep_param() change the existing scrub to
clean the whole param block instead of just the key field.

Fixes: 6cd87cb5ef6c ("s390/crypto: Rework protected key AES for true asynch support")
