commit 567dd8f34560fa221a6343729474536aa7ede4fd upstream.
The device mapper dm-crypt target is using scnprintf("%02x", cc->key[i]) to report the current key to userspace. However, this is not a constant-time operation and it may leak information about the key via timing, via cache access patterns or via the branch predictor.
Change dm-crypt's key printing to use "%c" instead of "%02x". Also introduce hex2asc() that carefully avoids any branching or memory accesses when converting a number in the range 0 ... 15 to an ascii character.
