Hi,
I only used the CCM example that contains the same comment at the
comparable point in its code.
If I remember correctly this comment means that no data will be added
to outbuf. Hence, outlen should be 0. I have not stepped through the
code, but that seems to be meaningful as CCM and GCM use c

By the way, this one is currently missing from the list on

If EVP_DecryptFinal_ex fails with GCM then this means that the tag has
failed to verify

Does that mean this RCE is a heap based overflow?
I/O buffers in openssl are generally (always?) from the heap, not on the stack.
The DTLS code uses on-stack buffers for discarding packets, but those
read calls are not affected by the present issue.

It appears that 1.0.0m has the same problem. I haven't l
