Pull request overview
Adjusts ML-DSA signature verification in src/image.c to properly handle and propagate error states (avoiding use of an uninitialized key and ensuring return values are not effectively ignored) during wolfCrypt ML-DSA key setup.
Changes:
- Adds an early return when
wc_MlDsaKey_Init()fails (preventing subsequent operations on an uninitializedwc_MlDsaKey). - Makes ML-DSA wolfHSM key-ID setup conditional on prior success (
ret == 0) after parameter configuration. - Simplifies control flow by removing a redundant
if (ret == 0)wrapper aroundwc_MlDsaKey_SetParams().
