This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled crypto: api - check for ERR pointers in crypto_destroy_tfm() to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: crypto-api-check-for-err-pointers-in-crypto_destroy_.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 70bde224d6a3de9058649f358a84d7af41cb98b6 Author: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Mar 2 21:33:03 2021 +0100 crypto: api - check for ERR pointers in crypto_destroy_tfm() [ Upstream commit 83681f2bebb34dbb3f03fecd8f570308ab8b7c2c ] Given that crypto_alloc_tfm() may return ERR pointers, and to avoid crashes on obscure error paths where such pointers are presented to crypto_destroy_tfm() (such as [0]), add an ERR_PTR check there before dereferencing the second argument as a struct crypto_tfm pointer.
