Upon looking at the source for both python2.7 and python3.5 in xenial, neither checks the return value from EVP_DigestInit in Modules/_hashopenssl.c file.

However, python3.6 (in bionic, cosmic and disco) does have the check.

So the check will need to be backported to python 2.7 and python 3.5 in xenial.
