In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

crypto: ccp: Don't attempt to copy PDH cert to userspace if PSP command failed

When retrieving the PDH cert, don't attempt to copy the blobs to userspace
if the firmware command failed. If the failure was due to an invalid
length, i.e. the userspace buffer+length was too small, copying the number
of bytes _firmware_ requires will overflow the kernel-allocated buffer and
leak data to userspace.
