driver: noise: reject response consumption after intermediate initiationHEADmaster
Two threads begin processing the identical response message, received twice. The first thread, A, runs. While it's running, the second one, B, gets partway through, and during that slow calculation, or even while blocking on MuAcquirePushLockExclusive(), A completes and then also a handshake initiation that's already been queued up runs in thread C, which itself takes that same MuAcquirePushLockExclusive(). The handshake initiation creation succeeds, and sets the state back to waiting-for-response, and calls MuReleasePushLockExclusive(), at which point thread B resumes, because either its finished its calculations or was finally allowed to acquire MuAcquirePushLockExclusive(). Thread B then copies the state back to the peer, and begins a new session, using that state, which is the same session as the one made in thread A. Thread A Thread B Thread C MuAcquirePushLockShared() sA = Handshake->State RtlCopyMemory(cA, Handshake->crypto) MuReleasePushLockShared() if (sA != 1) goto fail SlowCrypto(cA) MuAcquirePushLockShared() sB = Handshake->State RtlCopyMemory(cB, Handshake->crypto) MuReleasePushLockShared() if (sB != 1) goto fail SlowCrypto(cB) MuAcquirePushLockExclusive() if (sA != Handshake->State) goto fail RtlCopyMemory(Handshake->crypto, cA) Handshake->State = 2 MuReleasePushLockExclusive() MuAcquirePushLockExclusive() if (Handshake->State != 2) goto fail DeriveSession(Handshake->crypto) MuReleasePushLockExclusive() MuAcquirePushLockExclusive() SlowCrypto(Handshake->crypto) Handshake->State = 1 MuReleasePushLockExclusive() MuAcquirePushLockExclusive() if (sB != Handshake->State) goto fail RtlCopyMemory(Handshake->crypto, cB) Handshake->State = 2 MuReleasePushLockExclusive() MuAcquirePushLockExclusive() if (Handshake->State != 2) goto fail DeriveSession(Handshake->crypto) MuReleasePushLockExclusive() This seems basically impossible to hit in a meaningful way in practice, but ensure that it absolutely cannot happen by comparing the ephemeral private key that's on the stack with the latest one that the peer's handshake state has.
