[PATCH 4.4 49/51] crypto: cts - fix crash on short inputs

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jan 15 2019 - 11:38:49 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

[It's a minimal fix for a bug that was fixed incidentally by a large
refactoring in v4.8.]

In the CTS template, when the input length is <= one block cipher block
(e.g. <= 16 bytes for AES) pass the correct length to the underlying CBC
transform rather than one block. This matches the upstream behavior and
makes the encryption/decryption operation correctly return -EINVAL when
1 <= nbytes < bsize or succeed when nbytes == 0, rather than crashing.

This was fixed upstream incidentally by a large refactoring,
commit 0605c41cc53c ("crypto: cts - Convert to skcipher"). But
syzkaller easily trips over this when running on older kernels, as it's
easily reachable via AF_ALG. Therefore, this patch makes the minimal
fix for older kernels.
