Version v0.5.1 Release Overview
Welcome to the version 0.5.1 release of the PQC-LEO project!
The version 0.5.1 release of PQC-LEO is a minor hotfix that corrects a discrepancy in the project’s supported algorithm documentation.
Change Log
- Fix mistake in OpenSSL supported KEM algs table in #93
Full Changelog: v0.5.0...v0.5.1
Important Notes
-
HQC algorithms remain disabled by default in both liboqs and OQS-Provider due to non-conformance with the latest algorithm implementation, which includes crucial security fixes. The PQC-LEO framework includes an optional mechanism to enable HQC for benchmarking purposes only, with explicit user confirmation required. For more information, refer to the Advanced Setup Configuration guide and the project's DISCLAIMER document.
-
Functionality is limited to Debian-based operating systems.
-
If issues still occur with the automated TLS performance test control signalling, information on increasing the signal sleep delay can be seen in the Advanced Testing Customisation section of the TLS Performance Testing Instructions documentation file.
-
The project dependencies used in PQC-LEO v0.5.1 include a known issue where certain signature/KEM combinations may produce
infvalues for "Connections Per User Second" in TLS handshake tests with small testing windows. See the TLS Handshake Inf Result Handling documentation.
