Subject: [PATCH v2] crypto: AEAD: add check for presence of auth tag
Date: Mon, 05 Jan 2015 12:21:45 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <2529951.NL2CVhi6xs@tachyon.chronox.de> (raw)
The AEAD decryption operation requires the authentication tag to be
present as part of the cipher text buffer. The added check verifies that
the caller provides a cipher text with at least the authentication tag.
