[PATCH 3.16 015/328] crypto: vmac - require a block cipher with 128-bit block size

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

 



3.16.62-rc1 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.
