We guaranteed that secure heap is allocated by return value of CRYPTO_secure_malloc_init. OPENSSL_secure_actual_size tell if OPENSSL_secure_malloc is actually provided bigger memory fragment than we requested (to reduce fragmentation). Why care about it? > > > + if (!CRYPTO_secure_malloc_init(8192, 64)) > > + log_err("CRYPTO_secure_malloc_init() failed\n"); > > Either change the test to "!= 1" or also log "and 2 if successful but > the heap could not be protected by memory mapping." Why should we care about implementation details of successful allocation? If they don't think it's secure heap they should not return success. And they say about its return value "and 2 if successful but", so it's successful. > > > +#endif > > + > > g_argv = argv; > > g_argc = argc; > > > > @@ -2682,10 +2742,18 @@ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) > > imaevm_params.hash_algo = optarg; > > break; > > case 'p': > > + if (keypass) > > + OPENSSL_secure_clear_free(keypass, > > + strlen(keypass)); > > Is this test needed in case the pasword is provided multiple times? It does not care, it just frees memory so there is no leaks. (Perhaps. it will be cleaned on CRYPTO_secure_malloc_done anyway). I can remove this check, but why. Then we don't need to free() most of allocations, because exit will care about all memory. But we free them anyway. > If so, why not skip subsequent passwords? Old code favored last specified password and I'm just adding secure heap to it.
