Comment (by nickm):

 This code doing some of the same stuff as in #25943 -- creating X509
 objects via tor_malloc_zero.  If that's causing trouble there, it could
 also be the cause here.

 Honestly, both this test and the test at issue in #25943 seem very
 overfitted to me -- they're testing internal paths of the functions they
 test without much rhyme or reason, using objects that violate our
 invariants.  If we can't fix them, we should just replace them.
