Hi,
This is a serious bug.
CMS_final() finalises the structure cms. Its purpose is to perform any 
operations necessary on cms.
CMS_final() call to SMIME_crlf_copy() and not checking the return value from 
SMIME_crlf_copy() so even SMIME_crlf_copy() fail, CMS_final() will return ok 
but with wrong CMS data.
SMIME_crlf_copy() copies data from in_bio to out_bio and it's used at the final 
op on cms structure (for example before writing or sending cms object)
SMIME_crlf_copy will fail if some data in cms is missing or wrong.

Scenario to reproduce:
Create cms signature structure without the signature value and send it to 
CMS_final(). CMS_final() will return ok even if the CMS_final() fails.
This causes the software to continue with incorrect information and pass it on 
even though it is incorrect.

  CMS_final: do not ignore CMS_dataFinal result

Bug description:

  The CMS_dataFinal result is important as signature may fail, however, it
  is ignored while returning success from CMS_final.

  Please add this fix to The openssl 3.0.2 "Jammy Jellyfish (supported)"

  Thanks

      Handle SMIME_crlf_copy return code
      
      Currently the SMIME_crlf_copy result is ignored in all usages. It does
      return failure when memory allocation fails.
      
      This patch handles the SMIME_crlf_copy return code in all occurrences.
