Hi Thulasi,
Currently in (1.0.1) we are following the following sequence, which now need to replace with EVP.
Current sequence
//to create RSA pubkey
rsa = PEM_read_bio_RSA_PUBKEY(keybio, NULL, NULL, NULL); // !!!
//to decrypt using RSA utility
RSA_public_decrypt(len, (unsigned char*)buffer,decrypted,rsa, RSA_PKCS1_PADDING) ;
As you mentioned , if we use PEM_read_bio_PUBKEY to get EVP_PKEY, it will be a pubkey right ? but in order to decrypt as per the example in https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/man3/EVP_PKEY_decrypt_init.html
We need to use an RSA private key
Please suggest.
Regards,
Sunil

Hope, you are referring to https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.0.2/man3/EVP_PKEY_encrypt.html
Use PEM_read_bio_PUBKEY to get EVP_PKEY.
eng is for engine reference. If you have no engine, it can be NULL.
Thanks,
Thulasi.

Dear Openssl team,
While migrating from 1.0.2 to 3.0 we observe that RSA_public_decrypt() API been deprecated in 3.0.
We referred the example provided in man page but we are not clear in generating the initial ‘key’ required to create CTX.
Please suggest on (key , eng) params to proceed
Also currently we are using PEM_read_bio_RSA_PUBKEY() to generate RSA, I think this might not require in case of EVP, please suggest.
/*
* NB: assumes key, eng, in, inlen are already set up
* and that key is an RSA private key
*/
ctx = EVP_PKEY_CTX_new(key, eng);

Sunil

Isn't it obvious to use PEM_read_PrivateKey() or variants to load the private key as EVP_PKEY
and use EVP_PKEY_decrypt* as specified in https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.0.2/man3/EVP_PKEY_decrypt.html ?
Thanks,
Thulasi.
