The length of the attestation report buffer is never checked to be
valid before allocation is made. If the length of the report is returned
to be 0, the buffer to retrieve the attestation buffer is allocated with
length 0 and passed to the kernel to fill with contents of the attestation
report. Leaving this unchecked is dangerous and could lead to undefined
behavior.
