Yes, it changes the global state of libcrypto.

I consider the risk to other application slim to non-existing. Two cases are problematic:

1) an application relies on the fact that EVP_get_digestbyname("sha3_256") fails.
2) an application also uses EVP_add_digest_alias() but registers a different digest algorithm.

Both cases seem highly unlikely to me.
