Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which systems are relevant to this issue?

The affected code is the sun8i-ss driver's hardware random-number support through the crypto_rng interface. The description states that this interface is unused and redundant with the hardware RNG and Linux RNG facilities.

2

What conditions trigger the use-after-free issue?

The driver's generate function can be affected when wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() is interrupted by a signal and the DMA operation is not shut down. The same removed code also contained a buffer overread in its seed-copy operation.

3

How is this issue addressed upstream?

The vulnerable crypto_rng support was removed from the sun8i-ss driver rather than having the individual bugs fixed. The change is marked for stable backporting.
