Subject: [PATCH 4.4 09/16] crypto: mcryptd - Check mcryptd algorithm compatibility
Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2016 09:15:55 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161213171519.387484992@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20161213171518.862135257@linuxfoundation.org>
4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: tim <tim.c.chen@linux.intel.com>
commit 48a992727d82cb7db076fa15d372178743b1f4cd upstream.
Algorithms not compatible with mcryptd could be spawned by mcryptd
with a direct crypto_alloc_tfm invocation using a "mcryptd(alg)" name
construct. This causes mcryptd to crash the kernel if an arbitrary
"alg" is incompatible and not intended to be used with mcryptd. It is
an issue if AF_ALG tries to spawn mcryptd(alg) to expose it externally.
But such algorithms must be used internally and not be exposed.
We added a check to enforce that only internal algorithms are allowed
with mcryptd at the time mcryptd is spawning an algorithm.
