In both cases you should clear the stack'd copy of the encryption key.

That is quite a strong message. I'd say that the chosen algorithm is not
supported.

ciphertext and ciphertextlen must be nonnull too.

Last time I was pointing out that it doesn't make much sense to output
the difference whether encoded to base64 or not.
