From 016baaa1183bb0c5fb2a7de42413bba8a51c1bc8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2015 21:27:01 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] crypto: user - Fix crypto_alg_match race The function crypto_alg_match returns an algorithm without taking any references on it. This means that the algorithm can be freed at any time, therefore all users of crypto_alg_match are buggy. This patch fixes this by taking a reference count on the algorithm to prevent such races.
