Bug Description

See https://github.com/OpenVPN/easy-rsa/issues/454 for more details.

This is particularly problematic because easy-rsa is used in autopkgtests to create throwaway certificates. This bug makes the runner hang and time out.

I believe the underlying change in openssl was intended and is not a regression, see the discussion there:
