Subject: CVE-2012-1569 [GNUTLS-SA-2012-3]

asn1_get_length_der() in decoding.c in GNU Libtasn1 before 2.12
does not properly handle certain large length values. This can be
exploited by attackers to cause a DoS or other impacts via a 
crafted ASN.1 structure.

Fix adapted for use with libtasn1 embedded in GnuTLS 2.8.4.

Relevant upstream patch:
