In several places we catch specific OpenSSL errors, all of them instantiated as cryptography.exceptions.InternalError. However, we are only interested in particular cases, which can be filtered by the reason attribute:

  • Point at infinity (code 106)
  • Point not in the curve (code 107)
  • Invalid compressed point (code 110)

It would be good to create a custom error-handling mechanism to manage this better.
