Added files:
regress/lib/libcrypto/x509: x509attribute.c
Log message:
When X509_ATTRIBUTE_create() receives an invalid NID (e.g., -1), return
failure rather than silently constructing a broken X509_ATTRIBUTE object
that might cause NULL pointer accesses later on. This matters because
X509_ATTRIBUTE_create() is used by documented API functions like
PKCS7_add_attribute(3) and the NID comes straight from the user.
This fixes a bug found while working on documentation.
OK tb@ and "thanks" bluhm@
