Subject: crypto: virtio: Fix use-after-free in virtio_crypto_skcipher_finalize_req()

From: Longpeng(Mike) <[email protected]>

commit 8c855f0720ff006d75d0a2512c7f6c4f60ff60ee upstream.

The system'll crash when the users insmod crypto/tcrypto.ko with mode=155 ( testing "authenc(hmac(sha1),cbc(aes))" ). It's caused by reuse the memory of request structure.

In crypto_authenc_init_tfm(), the reqsize is set to:
[PART 1] sizeof(authenc_request_ctx) +
[PART 2] ictx->reqoff +
[PART 3] MAX(ahash part, skcipher part)
and the 'PART 3' is used by both ahash and skcipher in turn.

When the virtio_crypto driver finish skcipher req, it'll call ->complete callback(in crypto_finalize_skcipher_request) and then free its resources whose pointers are recorded in 'skcipher parts'.

However, the ->complete is 'crypto_authenc_encrypt_done' in this case, it will use the 'ahash part' of the request and change its content, so virtio_crypto driver will get the wrong pointer after ->complete finish and mistakenly free some other's memory. So the system will crash when these memory will be used again.

The resources which need to be cleaned up are not used any more. But the pointers of these resources may be changed in the function "crypto_finalize_skcipher_request". Thus release specific resources before calling this function.
