[ Upstream commit c630d1fe6219769049c87d1a6a0e9a6de55328a1 ]
Currently, MACSEC_SA_ATTR_PN is handled inconsistently, sometimes as a
u32, sometimes forced into a u64 without checking the actual length of
the attribute. Instead, we can use nla_get_u64 everywhere, which will
read up to 64 bits into a u64, capped by the actual length of the
attribute coming from userspace.
This fixes several issues:
- the check in validate_add_rxsa doesn't work with 32-bit attributes
- the checks in validate_add_txsa and validate_upd_sa incorrectly
reject X << 32 (with X != 0)
Fixes: 48ef50fa866a ("macsec: Netlink support of XPN cipher suites (IEEE 802.1AEbw)")

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.
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.
