crypto: authencesn - Do not place hiseq at end of dst for out-of-place decryption

2026-04-11T12:29:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit e02494114ebf7c8b42777c6cd6982f113bfdbec7 ] When decrypting data that is not in-place (src != dst), there is no need to save the high-order sequence bits in dst as it could simply be re-copied from the source. However, the data to be hashed need to be rearranged accordingly.

crypto: algif_aead - Revert to operating out-of-place

2026-04-11T12:29:27+00:00

[ Upstream commit a664bf3d603dc3bdcf9ae47cc21e0daec706d7a5 ] This mostly reverts commit 72548b093ee3 except for the copying of the associated data. There is no benefit in operating in-place in algif_aead since the source and destination come from different mappings. Get rid of all the complexity added for in-place operation and just copy the AD directly.

crypto: af-alg - fix NULL pointer dereference in scatterwalk

2026-04-11T12:29:24+00:00

[ Upstream commit 62397b493e14107ae82d8b80938f293d95425bcb ] The AF_ALG interface fails to unmark the end of a Scatter/Gather List (SGL) when chaining a new af_alg_tsgl structure. If a sendmsg() fills an SGL exactly to MAX_SGL_ENTS, the last entry is marked as the end. A subsequent sendmsg() allocates a new SGL and chains it, but fails to clear the end marker on the previous SGL's last data entry. This causes the crypto scatterwalk to hit a premature end, returning NULL on sg_next() and leading to a kernel panic during dereference. Fix this by explicitly unmarking the end of the previous SGL when performing sg_chain() in af_alg_alloc_tsgl().

crypto: deflate - fix spurious -ENOSPC

2026-04-11T12:29:23+00:00

[ Upstream commit 6d89f743e57cb34e233a8217b394c7ee09abf225 ] The code in deflate_decompress_one may erroneously return -ENOSPC even if it didn't run out of output space. The error happens under this condition: - Suppose that there are two input pages, the compressed data fits into the first page and the zlib checksum is placed in the second page. - The code iterates over the first page, decompresses the data and fully fills the destination buffer, zlib_inflate returns Z_OK becuse zlib hasn't seen the checksum yet. - The outer do-while loop is iterated again, acomp_walk_next_src sets the input parameters to the second page containing the checksum. - We go into the inner do-while loop, execute "dcur = acomp_walk_next_dst(&walk);". "dcur" is zero, so we break out of the loop and return -ENOSPC, despite the fact that the decompressed data fit into the destination buffer. In order to fix this bug, this commit changes the logic when to report the -ENOSPC error. We report the error if the destination buffer is empty *and* if zlib_inflate didn't make any progress consuming the input buffer. If zlib_inflate consumes the trailing checksum, we see that it made progress and we will not return -ENOSPC.

crypto: authencesn - reject too-short AAD (assoclen<8) to match ESP/ESN spec

2026-01-20T06:38:48+00:00

authencesn assumes an ESP/ESN-formatted AAD. When assoclen is shorter than the minimum expected length, crypto_authenc_esn_decrypt() can advance past the end of the destination scatterlist and trigger a NULL pointer dereference in scatterwalk_map_and_copy(), leading to a kernel panic (DoS). Add a minimum AAD length check to fail fast on invalid inputs.

crypto: seqiv - Do not use req->iv after crypto_aead_encrypt

2025-12-19T06:47:06+00:00

As soon as crypto_aead_encrypt is called, the underlying request may be freed by an asynchronous completion. Thus dereferencing req->iv after it returns is invalid. Instead of checking req->iv against info, create a new variable unaligned_info and use it for that purpose instead.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols: - Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list. Resulting in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending twice the number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles. - Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC queue. Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out of idle, but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly busy. Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet reordering. - Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths. - Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already did for Rx skbs). - Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric. - Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is sadly quite expensive on recent AMD machines. - Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for packets. - Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock pressure, improving the Rx performance. - Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory. - Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting (using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor fit for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using cgroups. - Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection. - Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of RTT. - Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid unnecessarily aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the connection RTT is low. - Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations. - Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload. - Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC 5837). - Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449). - Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL. - Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock. - Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC. - Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length, from Kees. - Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers. - Some preparations for slimming down struct page. - YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard. - Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly computed derived statistics and summarized system state.

Allow resetting back to default. - Add standard device stats for PSP crypto offload. - Leverage DSA frame broadcast to implement simple HSR frame duplication for a lot of switches without dedicated HSR offload. - Add uAPI defines for 1.6Tbps link modes. Device drivers: - Add Motorcomm YT921x gigabit Ethernet switch support. - Add MUCSE driver for N500/N210 1GbE NIC series. - Convert drivers to support dedicated ops for timestamping control, and away from the direct IOCTL handling.

Pull arm64 FPSIMD on-stack buffer updates from Eric Biggers: "This is a core arm64 change. However, I was asked to take this because most uses of kernel-mode FPSIMD are in crypto or CRC code.

Unfortunately, 528 bytes is kind of a lot for task_struct. This regression in the task_struct size was noticed and reported.

crypto: zstd - fix double-free in per-CPU stream cleanup

2025-12-01T10:05:07+00:00

The crypto/zstd module has a double-free bug that occurs when multiple tfms are allocated and freed. The issue happens because zstd_streams (per-CPU contexts) are freed in zstd_exit() during every tfm destruction, rather than being managed at the module level. When multiple tfms exist, each tfm exit attempts to free the same shared per-CPU streams, resulting in a double-free. This leads to a stack trace similar to: BUG: Bad page state in process kworker/u16:1 pfn:106fd93 page: refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x106fd93 flags: 0x17ffffc0000000(node=0|zone=2|lastcpupid=0x1fffff) page_type: 0xffffffff() raw: 0017ffffc0000000 dead000000000100 dead000000000122 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 page dumped because: nonzero entire_mapcount Modules linked in: ...
