What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

crypto: ccp: Don't attempt to copy PDH cert to userspace if PSP command failed

When retrieving the PDH cert, don't attempt to copy the blobs to userspace

if the firmware command failed. If the failure was due to an invalid

length, i.e. the userspace buffer+length was too small, copying the number

of bytes _firmware_ requires will overflow the kernel-allocated buffer and

leak data to userspace.

says otherwise, as __sev_do_cmd_locked() is expected to return -EIO on any

firwmware error.
