FreeBSD-SA-20:16.cryptodev Security Advisory
The FreeBSD Project
Topic: Insufficient cryptodev MAC key length check
Category: core
Module: cryptodev
Announced: 2020-05-12
Credits: Yuval Kanarenstein
Affects: FreeBSD 12.1
Corrected: 2020-01-20 11:54:00 UTC (stable/12, 12.1-STABLE)
2020-05-12 16:59:09 UTC (releng/12.1, 12.1-RELEASE-p5)
CVE Name: CVE-2019-15880
For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories,
including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the
following sections, please visit <URL:https://security.FreeBSD.org/>.
I. Background
The cryptodev module permits userland applications to offload cryptographic
requests to device drivers in the kernel. Applications create sessions via
file descriptors opened from /dev/crypto.
II. Problem Description
Requests to create cryptography sessions using a MAC did not validate the
user-supplied MAC key length. The cryptodev module allocates a buffer whose
size is this user-suppled length.
III. Impact
An unprivileged process can trigger a kernel panic.
IV. Workaround
Unload the cryptodev kernel module if it is loaded:
# kldunload cryptodev
Note that the cryptodev module is not loaded by default and is not
used by most applications. Specificially, use of accelerated software
cryptography (e.g. AES-NI) in userland applications via libraries such
as OpenSSL does not make use of the cryptodev module.
V. Solution
Upgrade your vulnerable system to a supported FreeBSD stable or
release / security branch (releng) dated after the correction date, and
reboot the system.
Perform one of the following:
1) To update your vulnerable system via a binary patch:
Systems running a RELEASE version of FreeBSD on the i386 or amd64
platforms can be updated via the freebsd-update(8) utility:
# freebsd-update fetch
# freebsd-update install
# shutdown -r +10min “Rebooting for a security update”
2) To update your vulnerable system via a source code patch:
The following patches have been verified to apply to the applicable
FreeBSD release branches.
a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the
detached PGP signature using your PGP utility.
# fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-20:16/cryptodev.patch
# fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-20:16/cryptodev.patch.asc
# gpg –verify cryptodev.patch.asc
b) Apply the patch. Execute the following commands as root:
# cd /usr/src
# patch < /path/to/patch
c) Recompile your kernel as described in
<URL:https://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html> and reboot the
system.
VI. Correction details
The following list contains the correction revision numbers for each
affected branch.

FreeBSD-SA-20:15.cryptodev Security Advisory
The FreeBSD Project
Topic: Use after free in cryptodev module
Category: core
Module: cryptodev
Announced: 2020-05-12
Credits: Yuval Kanarenstein
Affects: All supported versions of FreeBSD.
Corrected: 2020-01-20 11:19:55 UTC (stable/12, 12.1-STABLE)
2020-05-12 16:57:47 UTC (releng/12.1, 12.1-RELEASE-p5)
2020-01-20 11:19:55 UTC (stable/11, 11.3-STABLE)
2020-05-12 16:57:47 UTC (releng/11.3, 11.3-RELEASE-p9)
CVE Name: CVE-2019-15879
Note: The upcoming release of FreeBSD 11.4 was branched after the original
commit to the stable branch and already includes the fix for this advisory.
For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories,
including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the
following sections, please visit .
I. Background
The cryptodev module permits userland applications to offload
cryptographic requests to device drivers in the kernel. Applications
create sessions via file descriptors opened from /dev/crypto.
II. Problem Description
A race condition permitted a data structure in the kernel to be used
after it was freed by the cryptodev module.
III. Impact
An unprivileged process can overwrite arbitrary kernel memory.
IV. Workaround
Unload the cryptodev kernel module if it is loaded:
# kldunload cryptodev
Note that the cryptodev module is not loaded by default and is not
used by most applications. Specificially, use of accelerated software
cryptography, such as AES-NI, in userland applications via libraries such
as OpenSSL do not make use of the cryptodev module.
