GHSA-q445-7m23-qrmw: openssl's `MemBio::get_buf` has undefined behavior with empty buffers

July 22, 2024

Previously, MemBio::get_buf called slice::from_raw_parts with a null-pointer, which violates the functions invariants, leading to undefined behavior. In debug builds this would produce an assertion failure. This is now fixed.
