oqs-provider 0.7.0

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 the website: https://openquantumsafe.org/ and on Github at https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/.

oqs-provider is a standalone OpenSSL 3 provider enabling liboqs-based quantum-safe and hybrid key exchange for TLS 1.3, as well as quantum-safe and hybrid X.509 certificate generation, CMS, CMP and dgst (signature) operations.

When deployed, the oqs-provider binary (shared library) thus adds support for quantum-safe cryptographic operations to any standard OpenSSL(v3) installation. The ultimate goal is that all openssl functionality shall be PQC-enabled.

In general, the oqs-provider main branch is meant to be usable in conjunction with the main branch of liboqs and the master branch of OpenSSL.

Further details on building, testing and use can be found in README.md. See in particular limitations on intended use.

Release notes

This is version 0.7.0 of oqs-provider which continues from the earlier 0.6.1 release. This release is fully tested to be used in conjunction with the main branch of liboqs and is guaranteed to be in sync with v0.11.0 of liboqs.

Errata

This release was updated on October 10, 2024 after being first published on October 08, 2024. Prior to being updated the release notes heading incorrectly reported the release version number to be 0.7.1; this error was limited to oqs-provider 0.7.0 release notes and did not affect any oqs-provider functionality.

Security considerations

None.
