ECDSA_verify fails if one of the signature components is negative
because i2d_ECDSA_SIG returns the incorrect size;
problem is in ecs_vrf.c:
derlen = i2d_ECDSA_SIG(s, &der);
if (derlen != sig_len || memcmp(sigbuf, der, derlen))
goto err;
If signature component is negative derlen is computed as 71 instead of 70.
So I get "Public Key operation error" ... but if I comment out the length
check I get "Signature Verified Successfully"
Here is the parse of the signature file.
openssl asn1parse -i -inform DER -in file -in pub.sig
