2019-11-01crypto: skcipher - remove the "blkcipher" algorithm typeEric Biggers1-548/+0
Now that all "blkcipher" algorithms have been converted to "skcipher", remove the blkcipher algorithm type. The skcipher (symmetric key cipher) algorithm type was introduced a few years ago to replace both blkcipher and ablkcipher (synchronous and asynchronous block cipher). The advantages of skcipher include: - A much less confusing name, since none of these algorithm types have ever actually been for raw block ciphers, but rather for all length-preserving encryption modes including block cipher modes of operation, stream ciphers, and other length-preserving modes. - It unified blkcipher and ablkcipher into a single algorithm type which supports both synchronous and asynchronous implementations. Note, blkcipher already operated only on scatterlists, so the fact that skcipher does too isn't a regression in functionality. - Better type safety by using struct skcipher_alg, struct crypto_skcipher, etc. instead of crypto_alg, crypto_tfm, etc. - It sometimes simplifies the implementations of algorithms. Also, the blkcipher API was no longer being tested. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2018-12-23crypto: skcipher - remove remnants of internal IV generatorsEric Biggers1-4/+2
Remove dead code related to internal IV generators, which are no longer used since they've been replaced with the "seqiv" and "echainiv" templates. The removed code includes: - The "givcipher" (GIVCIPHER) algorithm type. No algorithms are registered with this type anymore, so it's unneeded. - The "const char *geniv" member of aead_alg, ablkcipher_alg, and blkcipher_alg. A few algorithms still set this, but it isn't used anymore except to show via /proc/crypto and CRYPTO_MSG_GETALG. Just hardcode "<default>" or "<none>" in those cases. - The 'skcipher_givcrypt_request' structure, which is never used.

2018-11-09crypto: user - clean up report structure copyingEric Biggers1-10/+6
There have been a pretty ridiculous number of issues with initializing the report structures that are copied to userspace by NETLINK_CRYPTO. Commit 4473710df1f8 ("crypto: user - Prepare for CRYPTO_MAX_ALG_NAME expansion") replaced some strncpy()s with strlcpy()s, thereby introducing information leaks. Later two other people tried to replace other strncpy()s with strlcpy() too, which would have introduced even more information leaks: - https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/954991/ - https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10434351/ Commit cac5818c25d0 ("crypto: user - Implement a generic crypto statistics") also uses the buggy strlcpy() approach and therefore leaks uninitialized memory to userspace. A fix was proposed, but it was originally incomplete. Seeing as how apparently no one can get this right with the current approach, change all the reporting functions to: - Start by memsetting the report structure to 0. This guarantees it's always initialized, regardless of what happens later. - Initialize all strings using strscpy(). This is safe after the memset, ensures null termination of long strings, avoids unnecessary work, and avoids the -Wstringop-truncation warnings from gcc. - Use sizeof(var) instead of sizeof(type). This is more robust against copy+paste errors. For simplicity, also reuse the -EMSGSIZE return value from nla_put().

2018-08-03crypto: blkcipher - fix crash flushing dcache in error pathEric Biggers1-28/+26
Like the skcipher_walk case: scatterwalk_done() is only meant to be called after a nonzero number of bytes have been processed, since scatterwalk_pagedone() will flush the dcache of the *previous* page. But in the error case of blkcipher_walk_done(), e.g. if the input wasn't an integer number of blocks, scatterwalk_done() was actually called after advancing 0 bytes. This caused a crash ("BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request") during '!PageSlab(page)' on architectures like arm and arm64 that define ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE, provided that the input was page-aligned as in that case walk->offset == 0. Fix it by reorganizing blkcipher_walk_done() to skip the scatterwalk_advance() and scatterwalk_done() if an error has occurred. This bug was found by syzkaller fuzzing. Reproducer, assuming ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE: #include <linux/if_alg.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <unistd.h> int main() { struct sockaddr_alg addr = { .salg_type = "skcipher", .salg_name = "ecb(aes-generic)", }; char buffer[4096] __attribute__((aligned(4096))) = { 0 }; int fd; fd = socket(AF_ALG, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0); bind(fd, (void *)&addr, sizeof(addr)); setsockopt(fd, SOL_ALG, ALG_SET_KEY, buffer, 16); fd = accept(fd, NULL, NULL); write(fd, buffer, 15); read(fd, buffer, 15); } Reported-by: Liu Chao <liuchao741@huawei.com> Fixes: 5cde0af2a982 ("[CRYPTO] cipher: Added block cipher type") Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v2.6.19+ Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2017-01-13crypto: Replaced gcc specific attributes with macros from compiler.hGideon Israel Dsouza1-3/+4
Continuing from this commit: 52f5684c8e1e ("kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...))") I submitted 4 total patches. They are part of task I've taken up to increase compiler portability in the kernel. I've cleaned up the subsystems under /kernel /mm /block and /security, this patch targets /crypto. There is <linux/compiler.h> which provides macros for various gcc specific constructs. Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've cleaned all instances of gcc specific attributes with the right macros for the crypto subsystem. I had to make one additional change into compiler-gcc.h for the case when one wants to use this: __attribute__((aligned) and not specify an alignment factor. From the gcc docs, this will result in the largest alignment for that data type on the target machine so I've named the macro __aligned_largest. Please advise if another name is more appropriate.

When we need to allocate a temporary blkcipher_walk_next and it fails, the code is supposed to take the slow path of processing the data block by block. However, due to an unrelated change we instead end up dereferencing the NULL pointer.

2015-12-09crypto: skcipher - Copy iv from desc even for 0-len walksJason A. Donenfeld1-1/+1
Some ciphers actually support encrypting zero length plaintexts. For example, many AEAD modes support this. The resulting ciphertext for those winds up being only the authentication tag, which is a result of the key, the iv, the additional data, and the fact that the plaintext had zero length. The blkcipher constructors won't copy the IV to the right place, however, when using a zero length input, resulting in some significant problems when ciphers call their initialization routines, only to find that the ->iv parameter is uninitialized. One such example of this would be using chacha20poly1305 with a zero length input, which then calls chacha20, which calls the key setup routine, which eventually OOPSes due to the uninitialized ->iv member.

2013-02-19crypto: user - fix info leaks in report APIMathias Krause1-3/+3
Three errors resulting in kernel memory disclosure: 1/ The structures used for the netlink based crypto algorithm report API are located on the stack. As snprintf() does not fill the remainder of the buffer with null bytes, those stack bytes will be disclosed to users of the API. Switch to strncpy() to fix this. 2/ crypto_report_one() does not initialize all field of struct crypto_user_alg. Fix this to fix the heap info leak. 3/ For the module name we should copy only as many bytes as module_name() returns -- not as much as the destination buffer could hold. But the current code does not and therefore copies random data from behind the end of the module name, as the module name is always shorter than CRYPTO_MAX_ALG_NAME. Also switch to use strncpy() to copy the algorithm's name and driver_name. They are strings, after all.

2009-02-18crypto: skcipher - Avoid infinite loop when cipher fails selftestHerbert Xu1-1/+1
When an skcipher constructed through crypto_givcipher_default fails its selftest, we'll loop forever trying to construct new skcipher objects but failing because it already exists. The crux of the issue is that once a givcipher fails the selftest, we'll ignore it on the next run through crypto_skcipher_lookup and attempt to construct a new givcipher.

2008-01-11[CRYPTO] skcipher: Create default givcipher instancesHerbert Xu1-0/+4
This patch makes crypto_alloc_ablkcipher/crypto_grab_skcipher always return algorithms that are capable of generating their own IVs through givencrypt and givdecrypt. Each algorithm may specify its default IV generator through the geniv field. For algorithms that do not set the geniv field, the blkcipher layer will pick a default. Currently it's chainiv for synchronous algorithms and eseqiv for asynchronous algorithms. Note that if these wrappers do not work on an algorithm then that algorithm must specify its own geniv or it can't be used at all. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2008-01-11[CRYPTO] ablkcipher: Add distinct ABLKCIPHER typeHerbert Xu1-6/+3
Up until now we have ablkcipher algorithms have been identified as type BLKCIPHER with the ASYNC bit set. This is suboptimal because ablkcipher refers to two things. On the one hand it refers to the top-level ablkcipher interface with requests. On the other hand it refers to and algorithm type underneath. As it is you cannot request a synchronous block cipher algorithm with the ablkcipher interface on top. This is a problem because we want to be able to eventually phase out the blkcipher top-level interface. This patch fixes this by making ABLKCIPHER its own type, just as we have distinct types for HASH and DIGEST. The type it associated with the algorithm implementation only. Which top-level interface is used for synchronous block ciphers is then determined by the mask that's used. If it's a specific mask then the old blkcipher interface is given, otherwise we go with the new ablkcipher interface. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

2006-09-21[CRYPTO] cipher: Added block cipher typeHerbert Xu1-0/+405
This patch adds the new type of block ciphers. Unlike current cipher algorithms which operate on a single block at a time, block ciphers operate on an arbitrarily long linear area of data. As it is block-based, it will skip any data remaining at the end which cannot form a block. The block cipher has one major difference when compared to the existing block cipher implementation. The sg walking is now performed by the algorithm rather than the cipher mid-layer. This is needed for drivers that directly support sg lists. It also improves performance for all algorithms as it reduces the total number of indirect calls by one. In future the existing cipher algorithm will be converted to only have a single-block interface. This will be done after all existing users have switched over to the new block cipher type.
