[ 30/SEP/2025 AJMETZ ] - commented out line 674 in master branch (or 654 in 0.39 release tag) ( $key->use_pkcs1_padding; ) following advice expressed in discussion of Git Issue 102 [ https://github.com//issues/102 ] and feedback on an earlier pull request [ https://github.com//pull/103#pullrequestreview-3220666378 ]. This will effectively delegate to Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA to set a default padding, and avoid the likes of errors such as: "PKCS#1 1.5 is disabled as it is known to be vulnerable to marvin attacks."
