From: Daniele Alessandrelli <daniele.alessandrelli@xxxxxxxxx> The length ('len' parameter) passed to crypto_ecdh_decode_key() is never checked against the length encoded in the passed buffer ('buf' parameter). This could lead to an out-of-bounds access when the passed length is less than the encoded length. Add a check to prevent that.
