Subject: efi_loader: variable: keep temporary buffer during the authentication
X-Git-Url: http://git.dujemihanovic.xyz/img/static/gitweb.css?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0658bb29b026a6af434b9e0cdeced5d25bdd206f;p=u-boot.git

efi_loader: variable: keep temporary buffer during the authentication

This is a bug fix; Setting an authenticated variable may fail due to
a memory corruption in the authentication.

A temporary buffer will, if needed, be allocated to parse a variable's
authentication data, and some portion of buffer, specifically signer's
certificates, will be referenced by efi_signature_verify().

So the buffer should be kept valid until the authentication process
is finished.
