You need to move the EVP_AEAD_CTX from the stack to the heap and
allocate/free it with EVP_AEAD_CTX_{new,free}(). See the example in
EVP_AEAD_CTX_init(3) - unfortunately written without proper error
checking (I should fix this).
Instead of
EVP_AEAD_CTX ctx;
if (!EVP_AEAD_CTX_init(&ctx, ...))
...
You'd now write
EVP_AEAD_CTX *ctx;
ctx = EVP_AEAD_CTX_new();
if (ctx == NULL)
// error
if (!EVP_AEAD_CTX_init(ctx, ...))
// error
...
EVP_AEAD_CTX_free(ctx);
