This can lead to a return to user space while the request is still pending in the driver. If userspace closes the sockets before the requests are handled by the driver, this will lead to use-after-frees (and potential crashes) in the kernel due to the tfm having been freed. The crashes can be easily reproduced (for example) by reducing the max queue length in cryptod.c and running the following (from http://www.chronox.de/libkcapi.html) on AES-NI capable hardware: $ while true; do kcapi -x 1 -e -c '__ecb-aes-aesni' \ -k 00000000000000000000000000000000 \ -p 00000000000000000000000000000000 >/dev/null & done Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Rabin Vincent Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu --- diff --git a/crypto/af_alg.c b/crypto/af_alg.c index 1fa7bc3..4665b79 100644 --- a/crypto/af_alg.c +++ b/crypto/af_alg.c @@ -455,6 +455,9 @@ void af_alg_complete(struct crypto_async_request *req, int err) { struct af_alg_completion *completion = req->data; + if (err == -EINPROGRESS) + return; + completion->err = err; complete(&completion->completion); }
