[PATCH 1/2] crypto/x509: Fix unaligned access in x509_get_sig_params()

From: Sowmini Varadhan <hidden>
Date: 2015-10-19 21:24:45
Also in: lkml, netdev
Subsystem: asymmetric keys, crypto api, the rest · Maintainers: David Howells, Lukas Wunner, Ignat Korchagin, Herbert Xu, "David S. Miller", Linus Torvalds

x509_get_sig_params() has the same code pattern as the one in
pkcs7_verify() that is fixed by commit 62f57d05e287 ("crypto: pkcs7 - Fix
unaligned access in pkcs7_verify()") so apply a similar fix here: make
sure that desc is pointing at an algined value past the digest_size,
and take alignment values into consideration when doing kzalloc()
