Version 1.0.22
This point release includes all the changes from 1.0.21-stable, plus:
- Post-quantum key encapsulation is now available. ML-KEM768, the
NIST-standardized lattice-based KEM, is accessible through the
crypto_kem_mlkem768_*()functions. - 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. - SHA-3 hash functions are now available as
crypto_hash_sha3256_*()
andcrypto_hash_sha3512_*(), with both one-shot and streaming APIs.
Version 1.0.21-stable
- Performance: NEON optimizations for Argon2 on ARM platforms.
- Performance: SHA3 (Keccak1600) now leverages ARM SHA3 instructions when
available on ARM platforms. - Performance: WebAssembly SIMD implementations of Argon2 have been added.
- Emscripten: LTO is now disabled. With Emscripten 4, LTO produced
WebAssembly modules with functions that ran significantly slower than
without it. - Emscripten: a new option allows compilation with SIMD support.
- Emscripten: native ESM module generation is now supported.
- JavaScript sumo builds now allow up to 80 MiB memory usage, so that
crypto_pwhashwith the interactive settings can be used in pure
JavaScript, not just WebAssembly. - XOF state alignment has been relaxed.
crypto_core_keccak1600_statehas been added.- Export missing
crypto_ipcrypt_nd_keygen()helper function. crypto_auth_hmacsha256_initandcrypto_auth_hmacsha512_initnow
accept NULL key pointers (with a zero key length), for consistency with
other_initfunctions.- apple-xcframework: headers are now in a Clibsodium subdirectory
to prevent module.modulemap collisions with other xcframeworks. - Fixed compilation with GCC on aarch64 and gcc 4.x.
- On aarch64, aes256-gcm is now enabled even when not using clang,
including MSVC. - Added compatibility with Visual Studio 2026 when toolsets do not
define PlatformToolsetVersion. - Libsodium can be directly used as a dependency in a Zig project.
- Performance of MSVC builds has been improved.
