This is another example of the problem I highlighted a few days ago. You
need to be very careful with which getter methods return a new instance
(or inc the ref count), and which ones do not.
Definitely not a bug but a matter of consistency.

Hi,
I'm trying to build a PKCS7 envelopped data (encrypted) but when I'm
done withe the PKCS7 structure and I try to free it (calling
PKCS7_free) I keep getting an "access violation accessing 0xfeeefef6".
I'm using openssl 0.9.8 under windows XP (win32).
Code is attached.
...
cert = PKCS7_cert_from_signer_info(p7, si);
if (cert == NULL)
{
ret = -1;
goto err;
}
...
if (cert != NULL)
X509_free(cert);
if (p7 != NULL)
PKCS7_free(p7);
this doesn't work as PKCS7_cert_from_signer_info doesn't
increase the reference counter and hence you free the cert
twice ...
