I've found that some tests for ccgost engine segfaults on Solaris/Sparc. Investigation shows that segfault happen wnen i2d_PrivateKey function calls function, pointed by old_priv_encode field in ASN1_METHOD structure
This field is commented in the crypto/asn1/asn1/asn1_locl.h as /* Legacy functions for old PEM */ but it is not initialized to NULL in EVP_PKEY_ASN1_new, and no function to set this field is provided. On most platforms it doesn't matter for some unknown reason (may be OPENSSL_malloc initializes memory to zero, but I don't understand why) but sometimes it does result in dereferencing uninitialized memory Fixing this problem is simple - just initialize these pointers to zero in EVP_PKEY_ASN1_new ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
