From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> commit aec286cd36eacfd797e3d5dab8d5d23c15d1bb5e upstream. If the user-provided IV needs to be aligned to the algorithm's alignmask, then skcipher_walk_virt() copies the IV into a new aligned buffer walk.iv. But skcipher_walk_virt() can fail afterwards, and then if the caller unconditionally accesses walk.iv, it's a use-after-free. Fix this in the LRW template by checking the return value of skcipher_walk_virt(). This bug was detected by my patches that improve testmgr to fuzz algorithms against their generic implementation. When the extra self-tests were run on a KASAN-enabled kernel, a KASAN use-after-free splat occured during lrw(aes) testing.
