4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 73bf20ef3df262026c3470241ae4ac8196943ffa upstream.
The VMAC template assumes the block cipher has a 128-bit block size, but
it failed to check for that. Thus it was possible to instantiate it
using a 64-bit block size cipher, e.g. "vmac(cast5)", causing
uninitialized memory to be used.
Add the needed check when instantiating the template.
Fixes: f1939f7c5645 ("crypto: vmac - New hash algorithm for intel_txt support")
