    <p>An update that contains one feature can now be installed.</p>

    


    
        <h2>Description:</h2>
    
    <p>This update for libsodium fixes the following issues:</p>
<p>Changes in libsodium:</p>
<p>Update to 1.0.22: (jsc#PED-16206)</p>
<ul>
<li>Post-quantum key encapsulation is now available. ML-KEM768, the
    NIST-standardized lattice-based KEM, is accessible through the
    crypto_kem_mlkem768_*() functions.</li>
<li>X-Wing, a hybrid KEM combining ML-KEM768 with X25519 for protection
    against both classical and quantum adversaries, is available through the
    crypto_kem_*() functions. X-Wing is the recommended KEM for most
    applications.</li>
<li>SHA-3 hash functions are now available as crypto_hash_sha3256_<em>()
    and crypto_hash_sha3512_</em>(), with both one-shot and streaming APIs.</li>
<li>Performance: NEON optimizations for Argon2 on ARM platforms.</li>
<li>Performance: SHA3 (Keccak1600) now leverages ARM SHA3 instructions when
    available on ARM platforms.</li>
<li>Performance: WebAssembly SIMD implementations of Argon2 have been added.</li>
<li>XOF state alignment has been relaxed.</li>
<li>crypto_core_keccak1600_state has been added.</li>
<li>Export missing crypto_ipcrypt_nd_keygen() helper function.</li>
<li>crypto_auth_hmacsha256_init and crypto_auth_hmacsha512_init now
    accept NULL key pointers (with a zero key length), for consistency with
    other _init functions.</li>
<li>Fixed compilation with GCC on aarch64 and gcc 4.x.</li>
<li>On aarch64, aes256-gcm is now enabled even when not using clang,
    including MSVC.</li>
<li>Libsodium can be directly used as a dependency in a Zig project.</li>
</ul>
