ipsec: fix AES CBC IV generation (CVE-2022-46397)
For AES-CBC, the IV must be unpredictable (see NIST SP800-38a Appendix C). Chaining IVs like is done by ipsecmb and native backends for the VNET_CRYPTO_OP_FLAG_INIT_IV is fully predictable. Encrypt a counter as part of the message, making the (predictable) counter-generated IV unpredictable. Fixes: VPP-2037 Type: fix Change-Id: If4f192d62bf97dda553e7573331c75efa11822ae Signed-off-by: Benoît Ganne <bganne@cisco.com>
