commit 6b06cdee81d68a8a829ad8e8d0f31d6836744af9 upstream.
When accessing an encrypted directory without the key, userspace must
operate on filenames derived from the ciphertext names, which contain
arbitrary bytes. Since we must support filenames as long as NAME_MAX,
we can't always just base64-encode the ciphertext, since that may make
it too long. Currently, this is solved by presenting long names in an
abbreviated form containing any needed filesystem-specific hashes (e.g.
to identify a directory block), then the last 16 bytes of ciphertext.
This needs to be sufficient to identify the actual name on lookup.
However, there is a bug. It seems to have been assumed that due to the
use of a CBC (ciphertext block chaining)-based encryption mode, the last
16 bytes (i.e. the AES block size) of ciphertext would depend on the
full plaintext, preventing collisions. However, we actually use CBC
with ciphertext stealing (CTS), which handles the last two blocks
specially, causing them to appear "flipped". Thus, it's actually the
second-to-last block which depends on the full plaintext.
This caused long filenames that differ only near the end of their
plaintexts to, when observed without the key, point to the wrong inode
and be undeletable. For example, with ext4:
# echo pass | e4crypt add_key -p 16 edir/
# seq -f "edir/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz012345%.0f" 100000 | xargs touch
# find edir/ -type f | xargs stat -c %i | sort | uniq | wc -l
100000
# sync
# echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
# keyctl new_session
# find edir/ -type f | xargs stat -c %i | sort | uniq | wc -l
2004
# rm -rf edir/
rm: cannot remove 'edir/_A7nNFi3rhkEQlJ6P,hdzluhODKOeWx5V': Structure needs cleaning
...
To fix this, when presenting long encrypted filenames, encode the
second-to-last block of ciphertext rather than the last 16 bytes.
Although it would be nice to solve this without depending on a specific
encryption mode, that would mean doing a cryptographic hash like SHA-256
which would be much less efficient. This way is sufficient for now, and
it's still compatible with encryption modes like HEH which are strong
pseudorandom permutations. Also, changing the presented names is still
allowed at any time because they are only provided to allow applications
to do things like delete encrypted directories. They're not designed to
be used to persistently identify files --- which would be hard to do
anyway, given that they're encrypted after all.
For ease of backports, this patch only makes the minimal fix to both
ext4 and f2fs. It leaves ubifs as-is, since ubifs doesn't compare the
ciphertext block yet. Follow-on patches will clean things up properly
and make the filesystems use a shared helper function.

An encrypted file name should never be shorter than an 16 bytes, the
AES block size. The 3.10 crypto layer will oops and crash the kernel
if ciphertext shorter than the block size is passed to it.
Fortunately, in modern kernels the crypto layer will not crash the
kernel in this scenario, but nevertheless, it represents a corrupted
directory, and we should detect it and mark the file system as
corrupted so that e2fsck can fix this.

Previously we were taking the required padding when allocating space
for the on-disk symlink. This caused a buffer overrun which could
trigger a krenel crash when running fsstress.

As suggested by Herbert Xu, we shouldn't allocate a new tfm each time
we read or write a page. Instead we can use a single tfm hanging off
the inode's crypt_info structure for all of our encryption needs for
that inode, since the tfm can be used by multiple crypto requests in
parallel.
Also use cmpxchg() to avoid races that could result in crypt_info
structure getting doubly allocated or doubly freed.

This is a pretty massive patch which does a number of different things:
1) The per-inode encryption information is now stored in an allocated
data structure, ext4_crypt_info, instead of directly in the node.
This reduces the size usage of an in-memory inode when it is not
using encryption.
2) We drop the ext4_fname_crypto_ctx entirely, and use the per-inode
encryption structure instead. This remove an unnecessary memory
allocation and free for the fname_crypto_ctx as well as allowing us
to reuse the ctfm in a directory for multiple lookups and file
creations.
3) We also cache the inode's policy information in the ext4_crypt_info
structure so we don't have to continually read it out of the
extended attributes.
4) We now keep the keyring key in the inode's encryption structure
instead of releasing it after we are done using it to derive the
per-inode key. This allows us to test to see if the key has been
revoked; if it has, we prevent the use of the derived key and free
it.
5) When an inode is released (or when the derived key is freed), we
will use memset_explicit() to zero out the derived key, so it's not
left hanging around in memory. This implies that when a user logs
out, it is important to first revoke the key, and then unlink it,
and then finally, to use "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" to
release any decrypted pages and dcache entries from the system
caches.
6) All this, and we also shrink the number of lines of code by around
100. :-)

Use struct ext4_encryption_key only for the master key passed via the
kernel keyring.
For internal kernel space users, we now use struct ext4_crypt_info.
This will allow us to put information from the policy structure so we
can cache it and avoid needing to constantly looking up the extended
attribute. We will do this in a spearate patch. This patch is mostly
mechnical to make it easier for patch review.

Encrypt the filename as soon it is passed in by the user. This avoids
our needing to encrypt the filename 2 or 3 times while in the process
of creating a filename.
Similarly, when looking up a directory entry, encrypt the filename
early, or if the encryption key is not available, base-64 decode the
file syystem so that the hash value and the last 16 bytes of the
encrypted filename is available in the new struct ext4_filename data
structure.

This obscures the length of the filenames, to decrease the amount of
information leakage. By default, we pad the filenames to the next 4
byte boundaries. This costs nothing, since the directory entries are
aligned to 4 byte boundaries anyway. Filenames can also be padded to
8, 16, or 32 bytes, which will consume more directory space.

Avoid using SHA-1 when calculating the user-visible filename when the
