I don't see how it breaks unrelated, since it's clearly making use of
the openssl library.  Grave or serious should be more than enough if it
really breaks something.

req.pem looks alot like an certificate request.  I can only hope it
doesn't contain your private key.

Did this work with other versions or something?

Your bug report doesn't contain much info, and I can only assume you've
set things up wrong.  So I'm lowering the severity since I don't believe
this to be a bug in the software.

What did you to create your certificate?  I suggest you read the
documentation on how to create it.
