This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled sign-file: Fix incorrect return values check to the 6.6-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: sign-file-fix-incorrect-return-values-check.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 2a479247e48da3c1bc77f8c28f0771e7f78a2730 Author: Yusong Gao <a869920004@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Dec 13 10:31:10 2023 +0000 sign-file: Fix incorrect return values check [ Upstream commit 829649443e78d85db0cff0c37cadb28fbb1a5f6f ] There are some wrong return values check in sign-file when call OpenSSL API. The ERR() check cond is wrong because of the program only check the return value is < 0 which ignored the return val is 0. For example: 1. CMS_final() return 1 for success or 0 for failure. 2. i2d_CMS_bio_stream() returns 1 for success or 0 for failure. 3. i2d_TYPEbio() return 1 for success and 0 for failure. 4. BIO_free() return 1 for success and 0 for failure.
