Subject: fscrypt: fix dereference of NULL user_key_payload
From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit d60b5b7854c3d135b869f74fb93eaf63cbb1991a upstream.
When an fscrypt-encrypted file is opened, we request the file's master
key from the keyrings service as a logon key, then access its payload.
However, a revoked key has a NULL payload, and we failed to check for
this. request_key() *does* skip revoked keys, but there is still a
window where the key can be revoked before we acquire its semaphore.
Fix it by checking for a NULL payload, treating it like a key which was
already revoked at the time it was requested.
