+Subject: [PATCH] openssl: Fix undefined memory access when verifying PKCS#7
+ containers
+
+If the signerInfo or recipientInfo structure doesn't contain
+issuerAndSerialNumber but instead a subjectKeyIdentifier, then the called
+functions will leave the passed name and serial numbers unchanged.  While
+openssl_x509_name2id() prevents a NULL-pointer dereference, it tries to
+DER-encode the object at the passed pointer via i2d_X509_NAME().
+Depending on the stack contents, this likely causes a segmentation fault.
+
+Fixes: 3c820cdc232a ("Implement PKCS#7 decryption using openssl")
+Fixes: c61723c69fb5 ("Implement OpenSSL PKCS#7 signed-data parsing and verification")
+Fixes: CVE-2026-78123
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-78123
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/strongiswan/strongswan/commit/e59b4c96990635a482d6532f7905143f2541d8b5]
