[PATCH 4.19 41/77] crypto: ecdh - avoid buffer overflow in ecdh_set_secret()

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

 



From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0aa171e9b267ce7c52d3a3df7bc9c1fc0203dec5 upstream.

Pavel reports that commit 17858b140bf4 ("crypto: ecdh - avoid unaligned
accesses in ecdh_set_secret()") fixes one problem but introduces another:
the unconditional memcpy() introduced by that commit may overflow the
target buffer if the source data is invalid, which could be the result of
intentional tampering.

So check params.key_size explicitly against the size of the target buffer
before validating the key further.

Fixes: 17858b140bf4 ("crypto: ecdh - avoid unaligned accesses in ecdh_set_secret()")
