Hi Gua, Thank you for this patch. Please see my response inline marked [SAMI].

Fixes: CVE-2022-36765 The CreateHob() function aligns the requested size to 8 performing the following operation: ``` HobLength = (UINT16)((HobLength + 0x7) & (~0x7)); ``` No checks are performed to ensure this value doesn't overflow, and could lead to CreateHob() returning a smaller HOB than requested, which could lead to OOB HOB accesses.

If the above condition occurs, a NULL is returned. A quick scan reveals that the calling functions do not check the returned value before use. e.g. https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/StandaloneMmPkg/Library/StandaloneMmCoreHobLib/Arm/StandaloneMmCoreHobLib.c#L167-L170 There are multiple such places where the calling functions do not check the pointer returned by CreateHob(). I believe a similar situation can happen for the other patches in this series.
