There are also a number of calloc() overflow errors out there that
affect openssl. Goto http://www.securitytracker.com and search on
calloc() or openssl and you'll get a good list

Where do you find calloc() used in OpenSSL? OpenSSL does all memory
allocations via OPENSSL_malloc and OPENSSL_realloc wrapper functions that
use malloc and realloc by default. I just grepped OpenSSL source and did
not find a single occurence of calloc.
