[PATCH 1/4] evm: check hash algorithm passed to init_desc()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch prevents memory access beyond the evm_tfm array by checking the
validity of the index (hash algorithm) passed to init_desc(). The hash
algorithm can be arbitrarily set if the security.ima xattr type is not
EVM_XATTR_HMAC.
