ecryptfs: reject too-small tag 70 packets

2026-07-21T03:11:14+00:00

ecryptfs_parse_tag_70_packet() subtracts fixed metadata fields from the parsed packet body size to derive the encrypted filename size. A malformed packet with a body smaller than those fixed fields can underflow that size calculation. Reject tag 70 packets before the subtraction unless the body contains the signature, cipher code, and at least one byte of encrypted filename data.

ecryptfs: fix tag 11 packet exact-fit size check

2026-07-21T03:11:14+00:00

parse_tag_11_packet() rejects a packet when the already-consumed tag and length bytes plus the packet body exceed the caller supplied maximum packet size. The check currently adds one extra byte, even though *packet_size already includes the tag byte before the length is parsed. Remove the extra byte so a tag 11 packet that exactly fits the available buffer is accepted while oversized packets are still rejected.

ecryptfs: pass packet set buffer size to parser

2026-07-21T03:11:14+00:00

ecryptfs_parse_packet_set() receives a pointer into the file header, but it calculates the remaining packet buffer size from PAGE_SIZE - 8. For version 1 headers the packet set starts later in the header, so this can overstate the available buffer. Pass the actual packet set buffer length from the caller and calculate per-packet limits from the remaining bytes in that buffer. Recompute the remaining length after consuming a tag 3 packet before parsing the following tag 11 packet.

ecryptfs: reject oversized encrypted_key_size in parse_tag_3_packet

2026-07-17T14:57:24+00:00

parse_tag_3_packet() set encrypted_key_size from the Tag 3 packet body without bounding it against ECRYPTFS_MAX_KEY_BYTES (64). When encrypted_key_size > 64, decrypt_passphrase_encrypted_session_key() sets decrypted_key_size = encrypted_key_size and performs two out-of-bounds writes: 1. crypto_skcipher_decrypt() writes encrypted_key_size bytes into decrypted_key[64] via scatterlist, overflowing into the parent ecryptfs_auth_tok struct. 2. memcpy(crypt_stat->key, decrypted_key, decrypted_key_size) writes into crypt_stat->key[64], corrupting root_iv, keysig_list, and mutexes in ecryptfs_crypt_stat. Only AES-192 (cipher code 0x08) enables this because it sets crypt_stat->key_size = 24 independently of encrypted_key_size, allowing crypto_skcipher_setkey() to succeed while encrypted_key_size exceeds ECRYPTFS_MAX_KEY_BYTES. The PKI decryption path (parse_tag_65_packet) already validates decrypted_key_size <= ECRYPTFS_MAX_KEY_BYTES; the passphrase path omits this check. Bound encrypted_key_size against ECRYPTFS_MAX_KEY_BYTES (64) rather than ECRYPTFS_MAX_ENCRYPTED_KEY_BYTES (512). The 64-byte limit also protects the 512-byte encrypted_key[] buffer, so the former 512-byte check is removed as redundant.

ecryptfs: remove redundant variable found_auth_tok

2026-05-11T14:53:14+00:00

The found_auth_tok variable is no longer needed, as the fact of finding a token is determined directly by jumping to the found_matching_auth_tok label inside the loop. Remove found_auth_tok, simplifying the function logic. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

ecryptfs: Replace memcpy + manual NUL termination with strscpy

2026-03-26T03:39:27+00:00

Use strscpy() to copy the NUL-terminated '->token.password.signature' and 'sig' to the destination buffers instead of using memcpy() followed by manual NUL terminations. Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28+00:00

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

ecryptfs: Drop redundant NUL terminations after calling ecryptfs_to_hex

ecryptfs: Replace strcpy with strscpy in ecryptfs_cipher_code_to_string

2025-12-23T21:23:23+00:00

strcpy() has been deprecated [1] because it performs no bounds checking on the destination buffer, which can lead to buffer overflows. Since the parameter 'char *str' is just a pointer with no size information, extend the function with a 'size' parameter to pass the destination buffer's size as an additional argument. Adjust the call sites accordingly. Link: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/deprecated.html#strcpy [1] Signed-off-by: Thorsten Blum Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks
