From: Hailey Mothershead <hailmo@amazon.com> stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.222 commit 9db8c299a521813630fcb4154298cb60c37f3133 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/IAHJG9 CVE: CVE-2024-42229 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit 23e4099bdc3c8381992f9eb975c79196d6755210 ] I.G 9.7.B for FIPS 140-3 specifies that variables temporarily holding cryptographic information should be zeroized once they are no longer needed. Accomplish this by using kfree_sensitive for buffers that previously held the private key.
