Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: af_key: initialize alg_key_len for IPComp states
pfkey_msg2xfrm_state() handles the IPComp (SADB_X_SATYPE_IPCOMP) case by
allocating x->calg and copying only the algorithm name:
x->calg = kmalloc_obj(*x->calg);
if (!x->calg) {
err = -ENOMEM;
goto out;
}
strcpy(x->calg->alg_name, a->name);
x->props.calgo = sa->sadb_sa_encrypt;
Unlike the authentication (x->aalg) and encryption (x->ealg) branches of
the same function, the compression branch never initializes
calg->alg_key_len. IPComp carries no key and the allocation only
reserves sizeof(struct xfrm_algo) (i.e. no room for a key), so the field
is left containing uninitialized slab data.
calg->alg_key_len is later used as a length by xfrm_algo_clone() when an
IPComp state is cloned during XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE:
xfrm_state_migrate()
xfrm_state_clone_and_setup()
x->calg = xfrm_algo_clone(orig->calg);
kmemdup(orig, xfrm_alg_len(orig));
where xfrm_alg_len() returns sizeof(*alg) + (alg_key_len + 7) / 8. With
a non-zero garbage alg_key_len, kmemdup() reads past the end of the
68-byte calg object. Adding an IPComp SA via PF_KEY and then migrating
it triggers (net-next, KASAN, init_on_alloc=0):

The buggy address belongs to the object at ff11000025a74980
which belongs to the cache kmalloc-96 of size 96
The buggy address is located 0 bytes inside of
allocated 68-byte region [ff11000025a74980, ff11000025a749c4)
Depending on the uninitialized value the same field can instead request
an oversized kmemdup() allocation and make the migration clone fail.
The XFRM netlink path is not affected: verify_one_alg() rejects an
XFRMA_ALG_COMP attribute shorter than xfrm_alg_len(), so a calg added via
XFRM_MSG_NEWSA is always self-consistent.
Initialize calg->alg_key_len to 0, matching the aalg/ealg branches.
