The PEM_* routines, as documented at:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.0.2/crypto/PEM_read_bio_PUBKEY.html
do not claim to read DER format input. (Actually they don't say anything about
DER).
Ruby's library uses:
pkey = PEM_read_bio_PUBKEY(bio, NULL, ossl_pem_passwd_cb, (void *)pass);It's documentation claims it read DER, which either it's wrong, or the underlying ruby extension or SSL code has changed. There must be a way to read DER format public keys. I'm suspecting that maybe the magic is in the way the BIO is created? (FAQ question PROG03, hints this for PKCS7 processing).
