alg_setkey do not check the keylen whether it is zero, so the key

If the lower functions only check the key if it is NULL, ZERO_SIZE_PTR
will pass the checking, and will cause null ptr dereference, so it's
better to intercept the invalid parameters in the upper functions.
This patch is also suitable to fix CVE-2017-15116 for stable trees.

If the length is 0 then why is the underlying ->setkey() method dereferencing
the pointer? Which algorithm does this happen for? Checking for NULL makes no
sense; the length needs to be checked instead.
The drbg_kcapi_reset has wrongly treated the (length == 0) && (data !=
NULL) as an valid
combination of parameters which has been fixed by herbert in
commit 8fded59 (crypto: drbg - Convert to new rng interface).
But i think to avoid such things happening again, maybe we could
intercept the length 0 error
in the entry of setkey ?
static int drbg_kcapi_reset(struct crypto_rng *tfm, u8 *seed, unsigned
int slen)
{
......
if (0 < slen) {
drbg_string_fill(&seed_string, seed, slen);
return drbg_instantiate(drbg, &seed_string, coreref, pr);
} else {
struct drbg_gen *data = (struct drbg_gen *)seed;
/* allow invocation of API call with NULL, 0 */
if (!data)
return drbg_instantiate(drbg, NULL, coreref, pr);
drbg_set_testdata(drbg, data->test_data);
/* linked list variable is now local to allow modification */
drbg_string_fill(&seed_string, data->addtl->buf,
data->addtl->len);
return drbg_instantiate(drbg, &seed_string, coreref, pr);
}
}
