From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabi...@virtuozzo.com> 3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
=============== commit f5527fffff3f002b0a6b376163613b82f69de073 upstream. This fixes CVE-2016-8650. If mpi_powm() is given a zero exponent, it wants to immediately return either 1 or 0, depending on the modulus. However, if the result was initalised with zero limb space, no limbs space is allocated and a NULL-pointer exception ensues. Fix this by allocating a minimal amount of limb space for the result when the 0-exponent case when the result is 1 and not touching the limb space when the result is 0. This affects the use of RSA keys and X.509 certificates that carry them.
