This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled libceph: don't WARN() if user tries to add invalid key to the 4.14-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: libceph-don-t-warn-if-user-tries-to-add-invalid-key.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From b11270853fa3654f08d4a6a03b23ddb220512d8d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2017 21:57:26 -0800 Subject: libceph: don't WARN() if user tries to add invalid key From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> commit b11270853fa3654f08d4a6a03b23ddb220512d8d upstream. The WARN_ON(!key->len) in set_secret() in net/ceph/crypto.c is hit if a user tries to add a key of type "ceph" with an invalid payload as follows (assuming CONFIG_CEPH_LIB=y): echo -e -n '\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00' \ | keyctl padd ceph desc @s This can be hit by fuzzers. As this is merely bad input and not a kernel bug, replace the WARN_ON() with return -EINVAL.
