[PATCH] crypto: ccp - Use kzalloc for sev ioctl interfaces to prevent kernel memory leak
Posted by John Allen 3 years, 12 months ago
For some sev ioctl interfaces, input may be passed that is less than or
equal to SEV_FW_BLOB_MAX_SIZE, but larger than the data that PSP
firmware returns. In this case, kmalloc will allocate memory that is the
size of the input rather than the size of the data. Since PSP firmware
doesn't fully overwrite the buffer, the sev ioctl interfaces with the
issue may return uninitialized slab memory.

Currently, all of the ioctl interfaces in the ccp driver are safe, but
to prevent future problems, change all ioctl interfaces that allocate
memory with kmalloc to use kzalloc.

I should have CC'd stable@vger.kernel.org and added a Fixes tag for
this. I'll send a v2 with these, but I'll give it a couple days for
comments before I do.

Thanks,
John
