The function EC_POINT_is_on_curve does not return a boolean value.
It returns 1 if the point is on the curve, 0 if it is not, and -1
on error. Many usages within OpenSSL were incorrectly using this
function and therefore not correctly handling error conditions.
With thanks to the Open Crypto Audit Project for reporting this issue.

For a local variable:
TYPE *p;
Allocations like this are "risky":
p = OPENSSL_malloc(sizeof(TYPE));
if the type of p changes, and the malloc call isn't updated, you
could get memory corruption. Instead do this:
p = OPENSSL_malloc(sizeof(*p));
Also fixed a few memset() calls that I noticed while doing this.

After the finale, the "real" final part. :) Do a recursive grep with
"-B1 -w [a-zA-Z0-9_]*_free" to see if any of the preceeding lines are
an "if NULL" check that can be removed.

Add OPENSSL_clear_free which merges cleanse and free.
(Names was picked to be similar to BN_clear_free, etc.)
Removed OPENSSL_freeFunc macro.
Fixed the small simple ones that are left:

Many applications require named curve parameter encoding instead of explicit
parameter encoding (including the TLS library in OpenSSL itself). Set this
encoding by default instead of requiring an explicit call to set it.
Add OPENSSL_EC_EXPLICT_CURVE define.

(cherry picked from commit 0e1c318ece)
- EC_GROUP_cmp shouldn't consider curves equal just because
the curve name is the same. (They really *should* be the same
in this case, but there's an EC_GROUP_set_curve_name API,
which could be misused.)
- EC_POINT_cmp shouldn't return 0 for ERR_R_SHOULD_NOT_HAVE_BEEN_CALLED
or EC_R_INCOMPATIBLE_OBJECTS errors because in a cmp API, 0 indicates
equality (not an error).

Move compression, point2oct and oct2point functions into separate files.
Add a flags field to EC_METHOD.
Add a flag EC_FLAGS_DEFAULT_OCT to use the default compession and oct
functions (all existing methods do this). This removes dependencies from
EC_METHOD while keeping original functionality.
- hide the EC_KEY structure definition in ec_lcl.c + add
some functions to use/access the EC_KEY fields
- change the way how method specific data (ecdsa/ecdh) is
attached to a EC_KEY
- add ECDSA_sign_ex and ECDSA_do_sign_ex functions with
additional parameters for pre-computed values
- rebuild libeay.num from 0.9.7
Remove certain redundant BN_zero() initialisations, because BN_CTX_get(),
BN_init(), [etc] already initialise to zero.
Correct error checking in bn_sqr.c, and be less wishy-wash about how/why
the result's 'top' value is set (note also, 'max' is always > 0 at this
point).
efficiency (EC_PRE_COMP objects are now constant once completed).
Extend 'extra_data' API to support arbitrarily many slots (although we
need only one at the moment).
Modify EC internal 'extra_data' API: EC_GROUP_[clear_]free_extra_data
now frees only a single slot (the previous functions are available as
EC_GROUP_[clear_]free_all_extra_data).

the new method names where _GF... suffixes have been removed.
Revert changes to ..._{get/set}_Jprojective_coordinates_...:
The current implementation for ECC over binary fields does not use
projective coordinates, and if it did, it would not use Jacobian
projective coordinates; so it's OK to use the ..._GFp prefix for all
this.
Add author attributions to some files so that it doesn't look
as if Sun wrote all of this :-)
EC_GROUP_{set_generator,get_generator,get_order,get_cofactor} are
implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched to
methods.
Also fix EC_GROUP_copy to copy the NID.
Add some WTLS curves.
New function EC_GROUP_check() (this will probably
be implemented differently soon).
