[PATCH 1/3] keys: fix out-of-bounds read in keyring_get_key_chunk()

[Michael Bommarito]

For description-level chunks keyring_get_key_chunk() advances the read
pointer by level * sizeof(long) past the inline prefix but only
bounds-checks the prefix, so a long enough key description is read past
its kmemdup(desc, desc_len + 1) allocation.  Compute the full byte
offset and bounds-check the description against it before reading.

The walk only reaches a description-level chunk when two keys collide
through the hash, x, type and domain_tag chunks, so this is reached from
an unprivileged add_key(2) with a crafted pair of same-type keys whose
index hashes collide; KASAN reports a slab-out-of-bounds read.

KASAN, x86_64: add_key(2) of a crafted hash-colliding "user"-key pair
(~63-byte descriptions) reports

  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in keyring_get_key_chunk
  keyring_get_key_chunk <- assoc_array_insert <- __key_link_begin
    <- __do_sys_add_key

reading one byte past the description allocation; the same trigger is
KASAN-clean with this patch.  On a kernel built without init-on-alloc,
reading the colliding keyring back with KEYCTL_READ returns
uninitialized slab until patches 2 and 3 are applied too.  Trigger
available off-list.
