crypto: user - Allow CRYPTO_MSG_GETALG without CAP_NET_ADMIN

2014-05-08T13:58:12+00:00

CRYPTO_USER requires CAP_NET_ADMIN for all operations. Most information
provided by CRYPTO_MSG_GETALG is also accessible through /proc/modules
and AF_ALG. CRYPTO_MSG_GETALG should not require CAP_NET_ADMIN so that
processes without CAP_NET_ADMIN can use CRYPTO_MSG_GETALG to get cipher
details, such as cipher priorities, for AF_ALG.

net: Use netlink_ns_capable to verify the permisions of netlink messages

2014-04-24T17:44:54+00:00

It is possible by passing a netlink socket to a more privileged
executable and then to fool that executable into writing to the socket
data that happens to be valid netlink message to do something that
privileged executable did not intend to do.

To keep this from happening replace bare capable and ns_capable calls
with netlink_capable, netlink_net_calls and netlink_ns_capable calls.
Which act the same as the previous calls except they verify that the
opener of the socket had the desired permissions as well.

crypto: user - constify netlink dispatch table

2013-03-10T08:46:43+00:00

There is no need to modify the netlink dispatch table at runtime and
making it const even makes the resulting object file slightly smaller.

crypto: user - fix empty string test in report API

2013-02-19T12:27:04+00:00

The current test for empty strings fails because it is testing the
address of a field, not a pointer. So the test will always be true.
Test the first character in the string to not be null instead.

crypto: user - fix info leaks in report API

2013-02-19T12:27:03+00:00

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.

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/herbert/crypto-2.6

2012-10-04T16:06:34+00:00

Pull crypto update from Herbert Xu:
 - Optimised AES/SHA1 for ARM.
 - IPsec ESN support in talitos and caam.
 - x86_64/avx implementation of cast5/cast6.
 - Add/use multi-algorithm registration helpers where possible.
 - Added IBM Power7+ in-Nest support.
 - Misc fixes.

Fix up trivial conflicts in crypto/Kconfig due to the sparc64 crypto
config options being added next to the new ARM ones.

[ Side note: cut-and-paste duplicate help texts make those conflicts
  harder to read than necessary, thanks to git being smart about
  minimizing conflicts and maximizing the common parts... ]

netlink: Rename pid to portid to avoid confusion

2012-09-10T19:30:41+00:00

It is a frequent mistake to confuse the netlink port identifier with a
process identifier.  Try to reduce this confusion by renaming fields
that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid.

I have carefully avoided changing the structures exported to
userspace to avoid changing the userspace API.

I have successfully built an allyesconfig kernel with this change.

netlink: hide struct module parameter in netlink_kernel_create

2012-09-08T22:46:30+00:00

This patch defines netlink_kernel_create as a wrapper function of
__netlink_kernel_create to hide the struct module *me parameter
(which seems to be THIS_MODULE in all existing netlink subsystems).

Suggested by David S. Miller.
