However, if n is an overly large prime, + then this computation would take a long time. + + An application that calls EVP_PKEY_public_check() and supplies an RSA key + obtained from an untrusted source could be vulnerable to a Denial of Service + attack. + + The function EVP_PKEY_public_check() is not called from other OpenSSL + functions however it is called from the OpenSSL pkey command line + application.
