Coverity reported a potential array overrun in get_evp_compatible_public_key() when converting a raw EC public key (X || Y) into the SEC1 uncompressed format required by OpenSSL EVP (0x04 || X || Y). The conversion intentionally increases the public key size by one byte to prepend the 0x04 uncompressed point prefix. This size adjustment may have triggered a false positive analysis warning.
