Subject: X.509: Fix the time validation [ver #2]
From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit cc25b994acfbc901429da682d0f73c190e960206 upstream.
This fixes CVE-2015-5327. It affects kernels from 4.3-rc1 onwards.
Fix the X.509 time validation to use month number-1 when looking up the
number of days in that month. Also put the month number validation before
doing the lookup so as not to risk overrunning the array.
This can be tested by doing the following:
