Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2014 10:29:45 +0200 From: Stephan Mueller <smueller@...onox.de> To: Herbert Xu <herbert@...dor.apana.org.au> Cc: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@...b.auug.org.au>, linux-next@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH v2] DRBG: fix maximum value checks on 32 bit systems The maximum values for additional input string or generated blocks is larger than 1<<32. To ensure a sensible value on 32 bit systems, return SIZE_MAX on 32 bit systems. This value is lower than the maximum allowed values defined in SP800-90A. The standard allow lower maximum values, but not larger values. SIZE_MAX - 1 is used for drbg_max_addtl to allow drbg_healthcheck_sanity to check the enforcement of the variable without wrapping.
