Title:
  CVE-2016-2182.patch has broken BN_bn2dec

Status in openssl package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My software which links to libcrypto stopped working on both Ubuntu
  12.04 / 14.04 / 16.04 last week.

  The problem is that BN_bn2dec returns NULL all the time (without
  setting an error message) even for valid input values. I think is a
  bug in CVE-2016-2182.patch.
