lib/oid_registry.c: X.509: fix the buffer overflow in the utility function for OID string
The sprint_oid() utility function doesn't properly check the buffer size
that it causes that the warning in vsnprintf() be triggered. For
example on v4.1 kernel:
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2357 at lib/vsprintf.c:1867 vsnprintf+0x5a7/0x5c0()
...
We can trigger this issue by injecting maliciously crafted x509 cert in
DER format. Just using hex editor to change the length of OID to over
the length of the SEQUENCE container. For example:
0:d=0 hl=4 l= 980 cons: SEQUENCE
4:d=1 hl=4 l= 700 cons: SEQUENCE
8:d=2 hl=2 l= 3 cons: cont [ 0 ]
10:d=3 hl=2 l= 1 prim: INTEGER :02
13:d=2 hl=2 l= 9 prim: INTEGER :9B47FAF791E7D1E3
24:d=2 hl=2 l= 13 cons: SEQUENCE
26:d=3 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT :sha256WithRSAEncryption
37:d=3 hl=2 l= 0 prim: NULL
39:d=2 hl=2 l= 121 cons: SEQUENCE
41:d=3 hl=2 l...
