Subject: [PATCH 1/8] crypto: af_alg - reject requests for untested algorithms
Date: Sun,  3 Oct 2021 20:14:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211003181413.12465-2-nstange@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211003181413.12465-1-nstange@suse.de>

Currently it's possible for userspace to specify any combination of
->salg_feat and ->salg_mask with respect to CRYTPO_ALG_TESTED via the
af_alg interface.

As these are passed onwards to crypto_larval_lookup() unmodified as
'mask' and 'type' parameters eventually, this can lead to the creation of
obscure lookup larvals like e.g. (mask & CRYTPO_ALG_TESTED) but not
(type & CRYTPO_ALG_TESTED) or the other way around.

Userspace should have no business in asking for untested algorithms. Make
af_alg's alg_bind() reject nonsensical combinations of ->salg_feat and
->salg_mask with respect to CRYTPO_ALG_TESTED with -EINVAL.

Note that CRYTPO_ALG_TESTED not being set in either of mask and type is
considered equivalent to that flag being set in both and these two
combinations are the only ones supported as of now.
