PKCS#7: Better handling of unsupported crypto
Provide better handling of unsupported crypto when verifying a PKCS#7 message. If we can't bridge the gap between a pair of X.509 certs or between a signed info block and an X.509 cert because it involves some crypto we don't support, that's not necessarily the end of the world as there may be other ways points at which we can intersect with a ring of trusted keys. Instead, only produce ENOPKG immediately if all the signed info blocks in a PKCS#7 message require unsupported crypto to bridge to the first X.509 cert. Otherwise, we defer the generation of ENOPKG until we get ENOKEY during trust validation. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Acked-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com>
