From 6bcbcb21faed17e529591f29aa0e492600f49ec3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tor Lillqvist Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2015 00:31:18 +0200 Subject: Fix crash when timestamping PDF signature Using the NSS API for CMS and ASN.1-based stuff in general correctly is extremely hard. It is very easy to do things slightly wrong. Of course no compiler warnings are produced. You just get code that happens to work by accident when compiled with one compiler, but not another, or depending on contents of uninitialised memory, or the phase of the moon. The problem was that the "values" field of a NSSCMSAttribute struct apparently is supposed to point to *two* SECItem pointers, one pointing to the actual value, and a NULL one. Anyway, now valgrind finally does not complain about any use of uninitialised memory. Most likely my earlier recent commits to this file were not necessary after all. They just seemed to help by accident, at least at one stage. But whatever...
