Subject: [PATCH] lib/mpi: avoid null pointer deref in mpi_cmp_ui()
Date:   Mon, 24 Jul 2023 00:07:27 +0000
Message-Id: <20230724000727.3281733-1-shiftee@posteo.net>

During NVMeTCP Authentication a controller can trigger a kernel
oops by specifying the 8192 bit Diffie Hellman group and passing
a correctly sized, but zeroed Diffie Hellamn value.
mpi_cmp_ui() was detecting this if the second parameter was 0,
but 1 is passed from dh_is_pubkey_valid(). This causes the null
pointer u->d to be dereferenced towards the end of mpi_cmp_ui()
