[PATCH 4/4] crypto: algif_skcipher - Fix race condition in skcipher_check_key

From: Milan Broz <hidden>
Date: 2016-02-26 11:44:27
Also in: stable
Subsystem: crypto api, the rest · Maintainers: Herbert Xu, "David S. Miller", Linus Torvalds

From: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

    commit 1822793a523e5d5730b19cc21160ff1717421bc8 upstream.

    We need to lock the child socket in skcipher_check_key as otherwise
    two simultaneous calls can cause the parent socket to be freed.
