Hi,

I think I have found a bug in
lib/efi_loader/efi_signature.c

efi_verify_certificate()

+                                             cert = x509_cert_parse(sig_data->data, sig_data->size);
+                                             if (!cert) {
+                                                            EFI_PRINT("Cannot parse x509 certificate\n");
+                                                            continue;
+                                             }


x509_cert_parse() not only returns a pointer, but also embed a linux error_code, so if an error happens there, the (!cert) check will fail!

I suggest using:

-                                              if (!cert) {
+                                            if (IS_ERR(cert)) {


Regards
Robert
