note 42259 added to function.openssl-public-encrypt

It looks like there is a limit on the size of the string to be encrypted: about 50 characters. This is due to the fact that the implementation allocates an output buffer of size EVP_PKEY_size(pkey), which is totally arbitrary and unrelated to the size of the input. Also, it's not using a cipher envelope approach. It's just RSAing the input string. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.openssl-public-encrypt.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+42259 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+42259&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+42259&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
