Hi, I'm using the ASN1_item_d2i method for getting extension info out of an x509 certificate. It _appears_ that it's changing the dereferenced address of the 'in' parameter, even though it's supposed to be const.
...
ASN1_VALUE * ASN1_item_d2i(ASN1_VALUE **val, const unsigned char **in, long len, const ASN1_ITEM *it);
the address of 'in' isn't const here (as we don't have a "const unsigned char * const *in" here). Due to historical reasons the address is increased by the number of bytes read.
