[PATCH v2 3/5] crypto: dh - Don't permit 'key' or 'g' size longer than 'p'

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

 



From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

The "qat-dh" DH implementation assumes that 'key' and 'g' can be copied
into a buffer with size 'p_size'.  However it was never checked that
that was actually the case, which most likely allowed users to cause a
buffer underflow via KEYCTL_DH_COMPUTE.

Fix this by updating crypto_dh_decode_key() to verify this precondition
for all DH implementations.

Fixes: c9839143ebbf ("crypto: qat - Add DH support")
