Subject: [PATCH 6.1.y] rxrpc: reject undecryptable rxkad response tickets
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2026 07:52:36 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260414115236.537968-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026041318-resource-luckless-1cf9@gregkh>

From: Yuqi Xu <xuyuqiabc@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit fe4447cd95623b1cfacc15f280aab73a6d7340b2 ]

rxkad_decrypt_ticket() decrypts the RXKAD response ticket and then
parses the buffer as plaintext without checking whether
crypto_skcipher_decrypt() succeeded.

A malformed RESPONSE can therefore use a non-block-aligned ticket
length, make the decrypt operation fail, and still drive the ticket
parser with attacker-controlled bytes.

Check the decrypt result and abort the connection with RXKADBADTICKET
when ticket decryption fails.

Fixes: 17926a79320a ("[AF_RXRPC]: Provide secure RxRPC sockets for use by userspace and kernel both")
