Hi,

This is a quick review of the devel-pekeys tree...

pkey_algo should be bounds-checked against pkey_algo size.

Maybe name this "key_verify_signature" instead of using the trailing _2?

I think, even if it wasn't done before, it's worth bounds-checking the
array access here too.

cut/paste-o? Shouldn't this while operate on pkcs7->crl instead of
pkcs7->certs? Looks like a deadlock if pkcs7->crl is !NULL.

More of my paranoia for array access here. :)

the key matching routing seems to not expect this trailing space
character? Also, is there some risk here that a requested signer
string could include a ":" character to confuse things?

Otherwise, looks good. Thanks for cleaning up the pefile parser stuff
I pointed out in the earlier review! :)
