This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled crypto: ecdsa - Avoid signed integer overflow on signature decoding to the 6.6-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-ecdsa-avoid-signed-integer-overflow-on-signat.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit bff91a5e31a75df1b810958068278ff04294b171 Author: Lukas Wunner <lukas@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Sep 10 16:30:24 2024 +0200 crypto: ecdsa - Avoid signed integer overflow on signature decoding [ Upstream commit 3b0565c703503f832d6cd7ba805aafa3b330cb9d ] When extracting a signature component r or s from an ASN.1-encoded integer, ecdsa_get_signature_rs() subtracts the expected length "bufsize" from the ASN.1 length "vlen" (both of unsigned type size_t) and stores the result in "diff" (of signed type ssize_t). This results in a signed integer overflow if vlen > SSIZE_MAX + bufsize. The kernel is compiled with -fno-strict-overflow, which implies -fwrapv, meaning signed integer overflow is not undefined behavior. And the function does check for overflow: if (-diff >= bufsize) return -EINVAL; So the code is fine in principle but not very obvious. In the future it might trigger a false-positive with CONFIG_UBSAN_SIGNED_WRAP=y. Avoid by comparing the two unsigned variables directly and erroring out if "vlen" is too large.
