commit6c2e322b36upstream. The memcpy() in crypto_cfb_decrypt_inplace() uses walk->iv as both the source and destination, which has undefined behavior. It is unneeded because walk->iv is already used to hold the previous ciphertext block; thus, walk->iv is already updated to its final value. So, remove it. Also, note that in-place decryption is the only case where the previous ciphertext block is not directly available. Therefore, as a related cleanup I also updated crypto_cfb_encrypt_segment() to directly use the previous ciphertext block rather than save it into walk->iv. This makes it consistent with in-place encryption and out-of-place decryption; now only in-place decryption is different, because it has to be.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
