Bug Description
The project is currently using base64 hooks from the OpenSSL project. That logic does not always work dependably. Due to that, an alternate method is being used if the OpenSSL method fails. The alternate method does not always work dependably either.
The OpenSSL method appears to sometimes fail when encoding/decoding a single line of data. Whereas, the alternate method appears to sometimes fail when encoding/decoding multiple lines of data. So for now, using both methods seems to catch the problem.
However, using two methods is a bit redundant and this issue should be looked into and resolved.
