For example, when\nassoclen = 32 and adata_header_len = 2:\n\n allocation = ALIGN(32, 16) + 6 = 38\n DMA length = ALIGN(32 + 2, 16) = 48\n\nAs a result, the QCE hardware can read beyond the allocated\nbuffer while computing the CBC-MAC over the associated data.\nThe extra bytes are folded into the authentication tag,\nresulting in an incorrect tag and causing CCM self-test\nfailures such as:\n\n alg: aead: ccm-aes-qce encryption test failed (wrong result)\n on test vector 8\n\nFix the allocation by adding the maximum possible AAD header\nlength before alignment:\n\n ALIGN(assoclen + MAX_CCM_ADATA_HEADER_LEN, 16)\n\nThis guarantees that the allocated buffer is large enough\nfor the fully padded AAD data for all supported header sizes." } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux",
