Hi,
running 5.10-rc3, I have come across a null pointer dereference.
It occured while trying to connect to a 802.1x/EAP-protected network using iwd.
However, the bug seems to be limited to iwd's usage of the keyctl API (unrelated to the wireless subsystem).
The bug seems related to the recent changes related to the SM2/SM3 algorithms, commits 215525639631a and 3093e7c16e12d.
I am including both the kernel logs as well as the system logs immediately before and after the null pointer dereference.
public_key_verify_signature+0x189 is crypto/asymmetric_keys/public_key.c:359, i.e.
if (strcmp(sig->pkey_algo, "sm2") == 0 && sig->data_size) {
[...]
Note that this block was introduced in commit 215525639631a.
