While reading through node_crypto.cc I think the code could perhaps
be be a made a little clearer if CryptPemCallback was renamed.

I admit that I'm very new to the code base and openssl but having a
name like PasswordCallback or something similar would have helped me
so I'm suggesting this change.

LGTM, it doesn’t look like there’s much that could go wrong here 😄

The callback is for making a passphrase available to OpenSSL when it discovers that it needs one, right? Maybe add a quick comment above it for that?

No problems, I'll add a comment about that.
