From 2975eee420007557a138445d0505f1d590d88d7e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Werner Koch Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2017 10:35:20 +0200 Subject: gpg: Fix export porting of zero length user ID packets. * g10/build-packet.c (do_user_id): Avoid indeterminate length header. -- We are able to import such user ids but when exporting them the exported data could not be imported again because the parser bails out on invalid keyrings. This is now fixed and should be backported. Note that in 2.0 this is only an issue for attribute packets. In 2.1 user IDs were also affected.a Signed-off-by: Werner Koch --- g10/build-packet.c | 9 +++++++-- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/g10/build-packet.c b/g10/build-packet.c index 5cc03cf65..d7f2291f2 100644 --- a/g10/build-packet.c +++ b/g10/build-packet.c @@ -233,12 +233,17 @@ do_user_id( IOBUF out, int ctb, PKT_user_id *uid ) if( uid->attrib_data ) { - write_header(out, ctb, uid->attrib_len); + /* We need to take special care of a user ID with a length of 0: + * Without forcing HDRLEN to 2 in this case an indeterminate length + * packet would be written which is not allowed.
