    KEYS: fix NULL pointer dereference during ASN.1 parsing [ver #2] · 624f5ab8
    Eric Biggers authored
    syzkaller reported a NULL pointer dereference in asn1_ber_decoder().  It
    can be reproduced by the following command, assuming
    CONFIG_PKCS7_TEST_KEY=y:
    
            keyctl add pkcs7_test desc '' @s
    
    The bug is that if the data buffer is empty, an integer underflow occurs
    in the following check:
    
            if (unlikely(dp >= datalen - 1))
                    goto data_overrun_error;
    
    This results in the NULL data pointer being dereferenced.
    
    Fix it by checking for 'datalen - dp < 2' instead.
    
    Also fix the similar check for 'dp >= datalen - n' later in the same
    function.  That one possibly could result in a buffer overread.
    
    The NULL pointer dereference was reproducible using the "pkcs7_test" key
    type but not the "asymmetric" key type because the "asymmetric" key type
    checks for a 0-length payload before calling into the ASN.1 decoder but
    the "pkcs7_test" key type does not.
    
    The bug report was:
