Package: openssl
Version: 0.9.8c-4
Severity: normal

Consider this:

   openssl enc -rc4 -d -salt -pass "pass:$pass" -in $file -out $out

When the parameter:

    out="-"

The openssl treat this as plain filename, a dash(-). 

SUGGESTION

Treat output filename dash(-) as STDOUT marker and write the content as is, not 
in disk.
