Title:
  'openssl ca' segfaults on second run

Status in openssl package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Openssl binary segfault on try to sign certificate.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. create root CA (self-signed certificate)
  2. create 'local CA' directory structure by something like this (see full shell script in attach):

  CA_DIR=demoCA
  mkdir -p $CA_DIR/signedcerts    # contains copies of each signed certificate
  mkdir -p $CA_DIR/private        # contains the private key
  mkdir -p $CA_DIR/tmp            # temporary certificate sign request files
  echo '01' > $CA_DIR/serial
  touch $CA_DIR/index.txt

  3. Generate sign request and sign first certificate (openssl req,
  openssl ca)

  4. Try do it again for next certificate.

  Actual result:

  First certificate is signed, but on try to sign second openssl
  segfaults.

  Expected result:

  Explain what wron with 'demoCA' directory instead of segfault.

  Additional details:

  Into attachment small script for reproduce the bug.
