Subject: [PATCH] crypto: zynqmp-sha - fix NULL pointer dereference in init_tfm
Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 09:53:40 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260908075339.396499-2-blum@kernel.org> (raw)
zynqmp_sha_init_tfm() checks crypto_shash_statesize(tfm_ctx->fbk_tfm)
before assigning the fallback transform to it, which dereferences a NULL
pointer since the transform context is zero-initialized. Use the local
fallback_tfm pointer for the size check instead.
Fixes: c1dd353d18e5 ("crypto: zynqmp-sha - Make descsize an algorithm attribute")
