[PATCH 4.14 17/42] xfrm: enforce validity of offload input flags

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Mar 07 2022 - 04:24:40 EST


From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 7c76ecd9c99b6e9a771d813ab1aa7fa428b3ade1 upstream.

struct xfrm_user_offload has flags variable that received user input,
but kernel didn't check if valid bits were provided. It caused a situation
where not sanitized input was forwarded directly to the drivers.

For example, XFRM_OFFLOAD_IPV6 define that was exposed, was used by
strongswan, but not implemented in the kernel at all.

As a solution, check and sanitize input flags to forward
XFRM_OFFLOAD_INBOUND to the drivers.

Fixes: d77e38e612a0 ("xfrm: Add an IPsec hardware offloading API")
