ArgumentCountError Thrown When Using openssl_public_encrypt and Other OpenSSL Functions #18387
Description
Description
After migrating from Amazon Linux 2 to Ubuntu 22.04 — and upgrading OpenSSL from version 1.0.2 to 3.0.2 — I have encountered two recurring types of errors:
1. OpenSSL Encryption Method Errors (ArgumentCountError)
When calling the openssl_public_encrypt function, it seems the method signature has changed, resulting in errors such as:
openssl_public_encrypt() expects exactly 1 argument, 4 given
openssl_public_encrypt() expects exactly 2 arguments, 4 given
openssl_public_encrypt() expects at most 3 arguments, 4 given
Other methods also show similar inconsistencies:
openssl_pkey_get_private() expects at least 2 arguments, 1 given
openssl_pkey_get_private() expects exactly 1 argument, 1 given
While this may indicate changes in method signatures or internal validation logic, it's still unclear why different ArgumentCountError messages are thrown for the same method.
2. cURL Errors
cURL error 35: error:03000072:digital envelope routines::decode error
This error occurs intermittently, particularly during peak request times.
Error Frequency: 10–20 times per day (Not always)
OpenSSL Version: 3.0.9
Questions
- Has anyone else experienced similar issues after upgrading to OpenSSL 3.x and Ubuntu 22.04?
- Could this be related to the PHP version or its OpenSSL extension compatibility?
Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
