Description
The
crlNumberfield in theCRL_Entrystructure stores the CRL Number as a hexadecimal string usingmp_toradix. However, its buffer size is defined byCRL_MAX_NUM_SZ, which represents the maximum CRL Number size in octets, not the hexadecimal string length.Since each octet requires two hexadecimal characters plus a null terminator, the hexadecimal string buffer size should be defined as
CRL_MAX_NUM_SZ * 2 + 1.Issue#9086
