crypto: algif_skcipher - rewind rounded output bytes
af_alg_get_rsgl() advances the receive iterator by the unrounded RX
scatterlist length. For a continuing skcipher request,
_skcipher_recvmsg() then rounds its local length down to a whole chunksize
without restoring the iterator.
A later chunk starts after bytes which the provider never wrote, while the
syscall returns only the processed length. When copy_splice_read()
supplies non-zeroed pages and publishes that return as a dense prefix, the
gap exposes stale bytes from a previous page lifetime.
With unprivileged xts(aes), a 31-byte MSG_MORE request followed by one
final byte advances a 47-byte destination while returning 32 bytes. A
hardened v7.2-rc5 image retained all 15 seeded stale bytes in 4,829 of
4,829 records. With init_on_alloc enabled, all 72,345 gap bytes observed
were zero.
Rewind the iterator by the tail excluded during rounding, before rejecting
a zero processed length. The crypto request uses only the rounded length;
af_alg_free_resources() releases the entire RX list before another receive
iteration.
The fixed target-like kernel returned byte-identical dense 48-byte output
in 4,771 of 4,771 rounds. The unmodified kernel returned the vulnerable
32-byte short record in 2,409 of 2,409 rounds.
