tpm: Use kfree_sensitive() to free auth session in tpm_dev_release() 2026-05-07T04:11:49+00:00 Gunnar Kudrjavets gunnarku@amazon.com 2026-04-09T17:20:54+00:00 53e6d2d834df40960b655b353e7a8ff4d927e1c7 commit c424d2664f08c77f08b4580b5f0cbaabf7c229b2 upstream. tpm_dev_release() uses plain kfree() to free chip->auth, which contains sensitive cryptographic material including HMAC session keys, nonces, and passphrase data (struct tpm2_auth). Every other code path that frees this structure uses kfree_sensitive() to zero the memory before releasing it: both tpm2_end_auth_session() and tpm_buf_check_hmac_response() do so. The tpm_dev_release() path is the only one that does not, leaving key material in freed slab memory until it is eventually overwritten. Use kfree_sensitive() for consistency with the rest of the driver and to ensure session keys are scrubbed during device teardown.

tpm: Fix auth session leak in tpm2_get_random() error path 2026-05-07T04:11:49+00:00 Gunnar Kudrjavets gunnarku@amazon.com 2026-04-08T09:00:27+00:00 726ce504235956f4d0a0422ec843aee762c7a36a commit 666c1a2ca603d8314231200bf8bbb3a81bd64c6b upstream. When tpm_buf_fill_hmac_session() fails inside the do-while loop in tpm2_get_random(), the function returns directly after destroying the buffer, without ending the auth session via tpm2_end_auth_session(). This leaks the TPM auth session resource. All other error paths within the loop correctly reach the 'out' label which calls both tpm_buf_destroy() and tpm2_end_auth_session(). Fix this by replacing the early return with a goto to the existing 'out' label, which already handles both cleanup operations. The redundant tpm_buf_destroy() call is removed since 'out' takes care of it.
