commit4a8108b705upstream. If the user-provided IV needs to be aligned to the algorithm's alignmask, then skcipher_walk_virt() copies the IV into a new aligned buffer walk.iv. But skcipher_walk_virt() can fail afterwards, and then if the caller unconditionally accesses walk.iv, it's a use-after-free. xts-aes-neonbs doesn't set an alignmask, so currently it isn't affected by this despite unconditionally accessing walk.iv. However this is more subtle than desired, and unconditionally accessing walk.iv has caused a real problem in other algorithms. Thus, update xts-aes-neonbs to start checking the return value of skcipher_walk_virt().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
