If the other EVP ciphers universally allow this then I think we must treat this as a bug, because people may be relying on this behaviour. There is also sporadic documentation in lower-level APIs (AES source and des.pod) that the buffers may overlap.
If it's inconsistent then, at the very least, we must document that it is not allowed. -- Ticket here: http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=4362 Please log in as guest with password guest if prompted -- openssl-dev mailing list To unsubscribe: https://mta.openssl.org/mailman/listinfo/openssl-dev
