Gate -fno-rtti on BORINGSSL_ALLOW_CXX_RUNTIME We used to have this toggle to control whether we passed -fno-rtti to libssl, when libssl was not allowed to take a C++ runtime dependency. This toggle is used by OSS-Fuzz because -fsanitize=vptr is incompatible with -fno-rtti. Now that we're back to passing -fno-rtti, but this time to libcrypto instead, restore this opt-out to unbreak OSS-Fuzz builds.

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.
Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.
Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.
BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.
Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.

To file a security issue, use the Chromium process and mention in the report this is for BoringSSL. You can ignore the parts of the process that are specific to Chromium/Chrome.
