Summary: Integer overflow in CipherUpdate
Details: Calls to `EVP_CipherUpdate`, `EVP_EncryptUpdate` and `EVP_DecryptUpdate` may overflow the output length argument in some cases where the input length is close to the maximum permissable length for an integer on the platform. In such cases the return value from the function call will be 1 (indicating success), but the output length value will be negative. This could cause applications to behave incorrectly or crash.
