commit c2f9144e52a3168a6faca83839367b0adfedfc50
Author: Matt Caswell <matt at openssl.org>
Date:   Fri Mar 10 10:51:35 2017 +0000

    Fix out-of-memory condition in conf
    
    conf has the ability to expand variables in config files. Repeatedly doing
    this can lead to an exponential increase in the amount of memory required.
    This places a limit on the length of a value that can result from an
    expansion.
    
    Credit to OSS-Fuzz for finding this problem.
