Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: ecc - Fix carry overflow in vli multiplication The carry flag calculation fails when r01.m_high is saturated (0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF) and addition of lower bits overflows. The condition (r01.m_high < product.m_high) doesn't handle the case where r01.m_high == product.m_high and an additional carry exists from lower-bit overflow. When commit 3c4b23901a0c ("crypto: ecdh - Add ECDH software support") introduced crypto/ecc.c, it split the muladd() function in the micro-ecc library into separate mul_64_64() and add_128_128() helpers. It seems the check got lost in translation. Add proper handling for this boundary by accounting for the carry from the lower addition.

No local account or capability is required.\nUI:N - The peer\u0027s public key is validated and the ECDH secret is computed before authentication-method completion. Headless and Just Works deployments require no human action.\nS:U - The vulnerable arithmetic and affected cryptographic consumers operate within the same kernel security authority. The vulnerability does not inherently cross a VM, IOMMU, or comparable security boundary.\nC:H - Incorrect field multiplication can undermine public-key validation and ECDH shared-secret computation. Faulty-curve or key-agreement attacks could expose secrets and all data protected by derived session keys.\nI:H - The same faulty multiplication supports ECDSA and ECRDSA verification, making false cryptographic results and signature or peer-authentication bypass defensible. This can authorize attacker-controlled content, code, or commands.\nA:H - Authentication bypass can authorize attacker-controlled code or commands capable of halting the system, while repeated crafted exchanges can prevent secure pairing.
