OpenSSL has always been nowhere near the level of robustness and bulletproofness that SQLite is at. Just look at how it's tested: https://www.sqlite.org/testing.html

It's too bad some part of tests are proprietary. I think it someone would want to rewrite SQLite (keeping compatibility), those tests would be of huge value.
