commit 624f5ab8720b3371367327a822c267699c1823b8 upstream.
syzkaller reported a NULL pointer dereference in asn1_ber_decoder(). It can be reproduced by the following command, assuming CONFIG_PKCS7_TEST_KEY=y:
keyctl add pkcs7_test desc '' @s
The bug is that if the data buffer is empty, an integer underflow occurs in the following check:
if (unlikely(dp >= datalen - 1)) goto data_overrun_error;
This results in the NULL data pointer being dereferenced.
Fix it by checking for 'datalen - dp < 2' instead.
Also fix the similar check for 'dp >= datalen - n' later in the same function. That one possibly could result in a buffer overread.
The NULL pointer dereference was reproducible using the "pkcs7_test" key type but not the "asymmetric" key type because the "asymmetric" key type checks for a 0-length payload before calling into the ASN.1 decoder but the "pkcs7_test" key type does not.
The bug report was:
