Hello,

For some time I have been trying to fix an issue with the Atmel AES hardware
accelerator available on SAMA5D2 chips. The ciphertext stealing mode did not
work, and this led to problems when using the cts(cbc(aes)) crypto engine
for fscrypt with Linux 4.13.

(see also
I have updated the driver in atmel-aes.c to fix this issue, taking care of
the corner case where the source and destination are the same in decryption
mode by saving the last 16 bytes of ciphertext in memory, and restoring them
into the 'info' member of the encryption request. This made it possible to
pass the cts(cbc(aes)) test in tcrypt.ko, which was failing before.

Here are my modifications:

My problem is that I do not understand why it works. It ensures that in both
encryption and decryption cases, the IV buffer is available and 16 bytes
wide. But normally the IV buffer provided by the crypto request is already
16 bytes wide, as the algorithm is registered with ivsize=16.

As I am not very familiar with the crypto subsystem, I fear that I missed
something. I would gladly appreciate the feedback of more experienced
developers regarding this issue.

Best regards,

The NULL deference appears because of a memory corruption issue.

atmel-aes does not implement ccm(aes), so the algorithm will be in the
following form: ccm_base(atmel-ctr-aes,cbcmac(aes-generic)).

ccm auth uses the first byte of the IV as length and eventually will
memset memory to zero based on that length (see set_msg_len()). CTR
overwrites the iv with the last ciphertext block and the length will be
wrong.

I will propose a fix, but I'm taking my time to better understand why
CTR requires to overwrite the iv with the last ciphertext block.

Cheers,

That's an API requirement.  So we should fix ccm.

Where is the documentation for this API requirement?

I tried to find it in the kernel, but I only found a few comments in the
commit messages or in the implementations, but not an explicit
requirement.

Moreover, as it seems to be a common mistake in the crypto accelerators,
I believe that the algorithms' self-test should also check the IV at the
end of a request.

In the decryption case, the code should probably be shared for most
implementations: we need to save the input data before decryption in
case of in-place decoding, and restore it into the IV buffer before
returning to the caller.

Looks good. Can you please submit with a commit message?

How about renaming this variable to "lastc"? Ci, i=1..n is the usual
notation for the ciphertext blocks.

The assumption that the last ciphertext block is of AES_BLOCK_SIZE size
is correct, this driver is meant just for AES.

why don't we make the same assumption and replace ivsize with
AES_BLOCK_SIZE? Is there any chance that req->info was allocated with
less than AES_BLOCK_SIZE size?

memset to zero is not necessary.

you can initialize these variables at declaration.

while here, please initialize this at declaration.

Also, this one:
'''
         dd = atmel_aes_find_dev(ctx);
         if (!dd)
                 return -ENODEV;

'''
should be moved at the beginning of the function. If an initialization
might fail, let's check it as soon as we can, so that we don't waste
resources.

saving the last ciphertext block is a requirement for skcipher. This
flag is redundant, there's no need to use it.

Thank you, Romain!

I do not really know. I'm just getting used to the crypto framework, and the
fact that the iv buffer size is implicit...

Most of these initializations are in fact structure casts.

The idea regarding the ciphertail flag was because atmel_aes_complete
is used by for regular block crypto (ecb, cbc, ctr, etc.) but also for
aead transfers in gcm and authenc cases, which triggered panics in
my code.

I now realize that casting the areq value to an ablkcipher_req is wrong,
as it can also be an aead_request. The ciphertail flag somehow worked
around this issue, but I need to rewrite the patch to take this into account.

But as I wanted to test my code more thoroughly, I also ran the kcapi test
suite on my test platform. Some tests cases were now passing, some others
did not pass both before and after my fix, but my fix also led to a
systematic oops when running the ccm(aes) test case. Here is an example of
the kernel logs observed:

As the changes in the hardware driver were related to the IV buffer, the
symptoms were coherent with an out-of-bounds memory access when updating the
IV. I applied the following patch, and this was enough to avoid the panic:
