This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled KEYS: asymmetric: Fix ECDSA use via keyctl uapi to the 6.2-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: keys-asymmetric-fix-ecdsa-use-via-keyctl-uapi.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.2 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 0f4cab2c958df52d4659f59174e454674e81f81e Author: Denis Kenzior <denkenz@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Aug 26 09:51:19 2022 -0500 KEYS: asymmetric: Fix ECDSA use via keyctl uapi [ Upstream commit 10de7b54293995368c52d9aa153f3e7a359f04a1 ] When support for ECDSA keys was added, constraints for data & signature sizes were never updated. This makes it impossible to use such keys via keyctl API from userspace. Update constraint on max_data_size to 64 bytes in order to support SHA512-based signatures. Also update the signature length constraints per ECDSA signature encoding described in RFC 5480.
