Subject: [PATCH v2 5/9] crypto: sa2ul - clear the crypto_aes_ctx when done
Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2026 11:44:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260803094432.70505-6-thuth@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260803094432.70505-1-thuth@redhat.com>
From: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>
Clear the crypto_aes_ctx structure via __cleanup(aes_clear_ctx) when
we're done with it to avoid that key data could leak on the stack.
