Subject: [PATCH] X.509: Fix crash caused by NULL pointer
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
On the following call path, `sig->pkey_algo` is not assigned
in asymmetric_key_verify_signature(), which causes runtime
crash in public_key_verify_signature().
keyctl_pkey_verify
asymmetric_key_verify_signature
verify_signature
public_key_verify_signature
This patch simply check this situation and fixes the crash
caused by NULL pointer.
Fixes: 215525639631 ("X.509: support OSCCA SM2-with-SM3 certificate verification")
