From 1d6bd3f50ebb1898972180649ee2845d606f87f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Fri, 6 Dec 2019 13:55:17 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] crypto: api - Check spawn->alg under lock in crypto_drop_spawn commit 7db3b61b6bba4310f454588c2ca6faf2958ad79f upstream. We need to check whether spawn->alg is NULL under lock as otherwise the algorithm could be removed from under us after we have checked it and found it to be non-NULL. This could cause us to remove the spawn from a non-existent list. Fixes: 7ede5a5ba55a ("crypto: api - Fix crypto_drop_spawn crash...")
