Eric Biggers c604cb7670 KEYS: DNS: fix parsing multiple options
My recent fix for dns_resolver_preparse() printing very long strings was
incomplete, as shown by syzbot which still managed to hit the
WARN_ONCE() in set_precision() by adding a crafted "dns_resolver" key:

    precision 50001 too large
    WARNING: CPU: 7 PID: 864 at lib/vsprintf.c:2164 vsnprintf+0x48a/0x5a0

The bug this time isn't just a printing bug, but also a logical error
when multiple options ("#"-separated strings) are given in the key
payload.  Specifically, when separating an option string into name and
value, if there is no value then the name is incorrectly considered to
end at the end of the key payload, rather than the end of the current
option.  This bypasses validation of the option length, and also means
that specifying multiple options is broken -- which presumably has gone
unnoticed as there is currently only one valid option anyway.

A similar problem also applied to option values, as the kstrtoul() when
parsing the "dnserror" option will read past the end of the current
option and into the next option.

Fix these bugs by correctly computing the length of the option name and
by copying the option value, null-terminated, into a temporary buffer.

Reproducer for the WARN_ONCE() that syzbot hit:

    perl -e 'print "#A#", "\0" x 50000' | keyctl padd dns_resolver desc @s

Reproducer for "dnserror" option being parsed incorrectly (expected
behavior is to fail when seeing the unknown option "foo", actual
behavior was to read the dnserror value as "1#foo" and fail there):

    perl -e 'print "#dnserror=1#foo\0"' | keyctl padd dns_resolver desc @s

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
