Package: dumpasn1
Version: 20150808-3
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

dumpasn1 prints a wrong decoding of a single octet octetstring when
reading from file (as opposed to stdin).

Create a simple test file:

        $ echo -ne "\x04\x01\x00" > test

dumpasn1 decodes this as:

        $ dumpasn1 test
          0   1: OCTET STRING 01

        0 warnings, 0 errors.

The expected result is what dumpasn1 gives when reading from stdin:

        $ cat test | dumpasn1 -
        Warning: Input is non-seekable, some functionality has been disabled.
          0   1: OCTET STRING 00

        0 warnings, 0 errors.

(I know this is an upstream bug, not a Debian one, but upstream seems to
just be a university homepage, so I am reporting this here.)
