Specification
https://wicg.github.io/webcrypto-modern-algos


Summary
Add post-quantum cryptography and a common symmetric AEAD to the set of 
cryptographic algorithms available in the Web Cryptography API. This will 
enable developers to have access browser-provided implementations of common 
quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms standardized by NIST. * ML-KEM - 
768, 1024 * ML-DSA - 44, 65, 87 * ChaCha20-Poly1305 * X-Wing


Blink component
Blink>WebCrypto


Web Feature ID
web-cryptography


Goals for experimentation
None


Risks




Interoperability and Compatibility
Won't work cross-browser until other browsers implement any of these new 
algorithms.

Gecko: Neutral (https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/1282) 
Despite being neutral, Firefox is shipping anyway

WebKit: Neutral (https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/641) 
Everyone is neutral because no one likes the Web Crypto API, but everyone 
agrees we should add PQC to it.

Web developers: No signals

Other signals:


WebView application risks

Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that it 
has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?
No information provided



Debuggability
