4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Maciej S. Szmigiero <mail@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit b65c32ec5a942ab3ada93a048089a938918aba7f upstream. The signatureValue field of a X.509 certificate is encoded as a BIT STRING. For RSA signatures this BIT STRING is of so-called primitive subtype, which contains a u8 prefix indicating a count of unused bits in the encoding. We have to strip this prefix from signature data, just as we already do for key data in x509_extract_key_data() function. This wasn't noticed earlier because this prefix byte is zero for RSA key sizes divisible by 8. Since BIT STRING is a big-endian encoding adding zero prefixes has no bearing on its value. The signature length, however was incorrect, which is a problem for RSA implementations that need it to be exactly correct (like AMD CCP). Signed-off-by: Maciej S.
