Subject: keynote: segfault on incorrect input
Package: keynote
Version: 2.3-11
Severity: normal

Calling keynote to verify a signature on a erroneous input may lead to
segfault instead of printing "Signature on assertion 0 verified." and
returning -1.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat test
Authorizer: foo
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ keynote sigver test
Erreur de segmentation

This can be reproduced using foo or even the "POLICY" keyword. Provided
keynote is used for security purpose such a bug might possibly be
exploited and further checking should perhaps be done on input.
