PGP encryption was using px_cipher_encrypt without checking if any error was returned. When OpenSSL is running in FIPS mode, or when the legacy provider hasn't been loaded, not all ciphers which are supported by the PGP code are available and fail the init step in px_cipher_encrypt. Since the PGP encryption failed to notice this it XORed the non-encrypted block with the plaintext, effectively disabling the encryption. This was found due to a report of PGP encryption not respecting the pgcrypto.builtin_crypto_enabled flag and allowing Blowfish and DES. This however turned out to be a false positive, since the PGP code only use ciphers from OpenSSL and not the built in ciphers.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
