security: keys: use menuconfig for KEYS symbol

2025-10-04T14:25:35Z

Give the KEYS kconfig symbol and its associated symbols a separate menu space under Security options by using "menuconfig" instead of "config". This also makes it easier to find the security and LSM options. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Reviewed-by: Jarkko Sakkinen Signed-off-by: Jarkko Sakkinen

KEYS: encrypted: Use SHA-256 library instead of crypto_shash

2025-10-04T14:25:35Z

Instead of the "sha256" crypto_shash, just use sha256(). Similarly, instead of the "hmac(sha256)" crypto_shash, just use hmac_sha256_usingrawkey(). This is simpler and faster. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Reviewed-by: Jarkko Sakkinen Reviewed-by: Mimi Zohar Signed-off-by: Jarkko Sakkinen

KEYS: trusted_tpm1: Move private functionality out of public header

2025-09-27T18:05:06Z

Move functionality used only by trusted_tpm1.c out of the public header . Specifically, change the exported functions into static functions, since they are not used outside trusted_tpm1.c, and move various other definitions and inline functions to trusted_tpm1.c.

KEYS: trusted_tpm1: Use SHA-1 library instead of crypto_shash

2025-09-27T18:05:06Z

Use the SHA-1 and HMAC-SHA1 library functions instead of crypto_shash. This is simpler and faster. Replace the selection of CRYPTO, CRYPTO_HMAC, and CRYPTO_SHA1 with CRYPTO_LIB_SHA1 and CRYPTO_LIB_UTILS. The latter is needed for crypto_memneq() which was previously being pulled in via CRYPTO.

KEYS: trusted_tpm1: Compare HMAC values in constant time

2025-09-27T18:05:06Z

To prevent timing attacks, HMAC value comparison needs to be constant time. Replace the memcmp() with the correct function, crypto_memneq(). [For the Fixes commit I used the commit that introduced the memcmp(). It predates the introduction of crypto_memneq(), but it was still a bug at the time even though a helper function didn't exist yet.] Fixes: d00a1c72f7f4 ("keys: add new trusted key-type") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Reviewed-by: Jarkko Sakkinen Signed-off-by: Jarkko Sakkinen

keys: Fix UAF in key_put()

2025-03-22T13:36:49Z

Once a key's reference count has been reduced to 0, the garbage collector thread may destroy it at any time and so key_put() is not allowed to touch the key after that point. The most key_put() is normally allowed to do is to touch key_gc_work as that's a static global variable. However, in an effort to speed up the reclamation of quota, this is now done in key_put() once the key's usage is reduced to 0 - but now the code is looking at the key after the deadline, which is forbidden. Fix this by using a flag to indicate that a key can be gc'd now rather than looking at the key's refcount in the garbage collector.

crypto: lib/Kconfig - hide library options

2025-03-21T09:33:39Z

Any driver that needs these library functions should already be selecting the corresponding Kconfig symbols, so there is no real point in making these visible. The original patch that made these user selectable described problems with drivers failing to select the code they use, but for consistency it's better to always use 'select' on a symbol than to mix it with 'depends on'.

treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable

2025-01-28T12:48:37Z

Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls, loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net, drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function. Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata. This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25cd5 ("sysctl: treewide: constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the proc_handlers. Created this by running an spatch followed by a sed command: Spatch: virtual patch @ depends on !(file in "net") disable optional_qualifier @ identifier table_name != { watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, iwcm_ctl_table, ucma_ctl_table, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls, loadpin_sysctl_table }; @@ + const struct ctl_table table_name [] = { ... }; sed: sed --in-place \ -e "s/struct ctl_table .table = &uts_kern/const struct ctl_table *table = \&uts_kern/" \ kernel/utsname_sysctl.c Reviewed-by: Song Liu Acked-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) # for kernel/trace/ Reviewed-by: Martin K.
