Subject: [PATCH 5.1 61/85] evm: check hash algorithm passed to init_desc()

From: Roberto Sassu <roberto.sassu@...wei.com>

commit 221be106d75c1b511973301542f47d6000d0b63e upstream.

This patch prevents memory access beyond the evm_tfm array by checking the
validity of the index (hash algorithm) passed to init_desc(). The hash
algorithm can be arbitrarily set if the security.ima xattr type is not
EVM_XATTR_HMAC.

Fixes: 5feeb61183dde ("evm: Allow non-SHA1 digital signatures")
