liboqs version 0.12.0
=====================

About

The Open Quantum Safe (OQS) project has the goal of developing and prototyping quantum-resistant cryptography. More information on OQS can be found on our website: https://openquantumsafe.org/ and on Github at https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/.

liboqs is an open source C library for quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms. Details about liboqs can be found in README.md. See in particular limitations on intended use.

liboqs can be used with the following Open Quantum Safe application integrations:

Several demos are available for using the above libraries in applications, including Apache, Chromium, curl, haproxy, nginx, and Wireshark.

liboqs can also be used in the following programming languages via language-specific wrappers:

Release notes

This is version 0.12.0 of liboqs. It was released on December 9, 2024.

This release updates the ML-DSA implementation to the final FIPS 204 version. This release still includes the NIST Round 3 version of Dilithium for interoperability purposes, but we plan to remove Dilithium Round 3 in a future release.

Deprecation notice

This will be the last release of liboqs to include Kyber (that is, the NIST Round 3 version of Kyber, prior to its standardization by NIST as ML-KEM in FIPS 203). Applications should switch to ML-KEM (FIPS 203).

The addition of ML-DSA FIPS 204 final version to liboqs has introduced a new signature API which includes a context string parameter. We are planning to remove the old version of the API without a context string in the next release to streamline the API and bring it in line with NIST specifications. Users who have an opinion on this removal are invited to provide input at open-quantum-safe/liboqs#2001.

Security issues

  • CVE-2024-54137: Fixed bug in HQC decapsulation that leads to incorrect shared secret value during decapsulation when called with an invalid ciphertext. Thank you to Célian Glénaz and Dahmun Goudarzi from Quarkslab for identifying the issue.

What's New

This release continues from the 0.11.0 release of liboqs.

Key encapsulation mechanisms

  • HQC: Fixed bug in decapsulation that leads to incorrect shared secret value during decapsulation when called with an invalid ciphertext. Thank you to Célian Glénaz and Dahmun Goudarzi from Quarkslab for identifying the issue.
  • Kyber: This is the last release of liboqs to include Kyber.
  • ML-KEM: Improved testing of ML-KEM.

Digital signature schemes

  • LMS: Fixed crashing bug.
  • ML-DSA: Removed FIPS 204-ipd (initial public draft) and replaced it with FIPS 204 final version.
  • Added new API for digital signatures with context strings; see Deprecate signature API without context string? open-quantum-safe/liboqs#2001 for plan to remove old API without context string.
  • Added fuzzing tests for signature schemes.
  • Added benchmarking for stateful hash-based signature schemes.

Other changes

  • Updated CBOM format to version 1.6.
  • Added a function OQS_thread_stop to be called by multi-threaded applications to properly deallocate resources in a threaded execution.
  • Added preprocessor macros conveying liboqs version information.
