In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Check params size before reading reserved fields
bpf_crypto_ctx_create() is a kfunc whose second argument is declared
with the __sz annotation, so the verifier only guarantees that
params__sz bytes of params are valid. The function nevertheless reads
params->reserved[0] and params->reserved[1] (offsets 14 and 15) before
comparing params__sz against the size of struct bpf_crypto_params, so a
BPF program can pass a shorter buffer and have the kernel read past the
region that was validated for it.
Move the size check in front of the reserved field reads.
