The ML-KEM ARM64 NEON ciphertext comparison only compares half of the input, breaking the Fujisaki-Okamoto transform's implicit rejection and weakening IND-CCA2 security on that code path. The constant-time comparison effectively ignored part of the re-encrypted ciphertext, so a decapsulating par...

Explainable PQC: A Layered Interpretive Framework for Post-Quantum Cryptographic Security Assumptions

This paper studies how post-quantum cryptographic PQC security assumptions can be represented and communicated through a structured, layered framework that is useful for technical interpretation but does not replace formal cryptographic proofs. We propose "Explainable PQC,'' an interdisciplinary...

UBUNTU-CVE-2026-3503

Protection mechanism failure in wolfCrypt post-quantum implementations ML-KEM and ML-DSA in wolfSSL on ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers allows a physical attacker to compromise key material and/or cryptographic outcomes via induced transient faults that corrupt or redirect seed/pointer values during...

Benchmarking Post-Quantum Cryptography on Resource-Constrained IoT Devices: ML-KEM and ML-DSA on ARM Cortex-M0+

The migration to post-quantum cryptography is urgent for Internet of Things devices with 10-20 year lifespans, yet no systematic benchmarks exist for the finalised NIST standards on the most constrained 32-bit processor class. This paper presents the first isolated algorithm-level benchmarks of...
