Subject: [PATCH v2] lib/digsig: fix dereference of NULL user_key_payload
Date: Mon,  9 Oct 2017 12:43:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171009194320.67221-1-ebiggers3@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>

digsig_verify() requests a user key, then accesses its payload.
However, a revoked key has a NULL payload, and we failed to check for
this.  request_key() *does* skip revoked keys, but there is still a
window where the key can be revoked before we acquire its semaphore.

Fix it by checking for a NULL payload, treating it like a key which was
already revoked at the time it was requested.

Fixes: 051dbb918c7f ("crypto: digital signature verification support")

Changed since v1: added Reviewed-by and resent as standalone patch.  Can
this please be taken through the security tree or the keyrings tree?
