EVP_aes_128_cbc() is still usable to get the appropriate EVP_CIPHER reference, but is regarded legacy. With OpenSSL 3.0 and providers, the new method to get the algorithm you want is by fetching, in this case using EVP_CIPHER_fetch(). In https://www.openssl.org/docs/man3.0/man7/crypto.html#FETCHING-EXAMPLES, there is an example that demonstrates fetching exactly the algorithm your asking for, "AES-128-CBC". If you want to know exactly what algorithms are available to you (by name), 'openssl list' is your friend. For example, this command shows all the default cipher algorithms: openssl list -cipher-algorithms You will notice that the output is divided into two sections, "Legacy:" and "Provided:". The latter is more future proof set of names.
