Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

crypto: qcom-rng - fix infinite loop on requests not multiple of WORD_SZ

The commit referenced in the Fixes tag removed the 'break' from the else
branch in qcom_rng_read(), causing an infinite loop whenever 'max' is
not a multiple of WORD_SZ. This can be reproduced e.g. by running:

kcapi-rng -b 67 >/dev/null

There are many ways to fix this without adding back the 'break', but
they all seem more awkward than simply adding it back, so do just that.

Tested on a machine with Qualcomm Amberwing processor.

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: crypto: qcom-rng: corrige el bucle infinito en solicitudes que no sean múltiples de WORD_SZ. El commit a la que se hace referencia en la etiqueta Fixes eliminó la 'ruptura' de la rama else en qcom_rng_read(), lo que provocó una bucle infinito siempre que 'max' no sea un múltiplo de WORD_SZ. Esto se puede reproducir, por ejemplo, ejecutando: kcapi-rng -b 67 >/dev/null Hay muchas formas de solucionar este problema sin volver a agregar el 'descanso', pero todas parecen más incómodas que simplemente volver a agregarlo, así que hazlo. Probado en una máquina con procesador Qualcomm Amberwing.
