Dear OpenSSSL users,

we recently came across a certificate with OID: id-RSASSA-PSS aka rsassaPss in x509 subjects public key AlgorithmIdentifier.

According to rfc4056 it is legitimate to use rsaEncryption or id-RSASSA-PSS as OID for the subject public key.

But when listing the certs's contents or during verification, openssl v1.0.2h bails out:
12392:error:0609E09C:digital envelope routines:PKEY_SET_TYPE:unsupported algorithm:.\crypto\evp\p_lib.c:231:
12392:error:0B07706F:x509 certificate routines:X509_PUBKEY_get:unsupported algorithm:.\crypto\asn1\x_pubkey.c:148:
which is caused by failing to assign the proper ameth structure to the key.

Later in x_pubkey.c, only the method pub_decode is needed, which seems to work for rsassa pubkeys.
So may we assign the same methods associated to rsaEncryption in this case or are we breaking other functionality by doing so?

It might be more interesting to just try using the current OpenSSL master branch (or a snapshot), which has more proper RSA-PSS support.
