new release of a compact cryptographic library , optimized for use on embedded devices with limited processor and memory resources, such as Internet of Things devices, smart home systems, automotive information systems, routers, and mobile phones. The code is written in C and is licensed under GPLv2.
The library provides high-performance implementations of modern cryptographic algorithms, including ChaCha20, Curve25519, NTRU, RSA, Blake2b, TLS 1.0-1.3, and DTLS 1.2, which, according to the developers, are 20 times more compact than implementations from OpenSSL. It offers a simplified API as well as a layer for compatibility with the OpenSSL API. Support is available for (Online Certificate Status Protocol) and (Certificate Revocation List) for certificate revocation checking.
Key features of wolfSSL 4.4.0:
- Support for chips based on Qualcomm Hexagon microarchitecture
; - New APIs for ChaCha20/Poly1305 in
- AEAD ;
- Support for use with the Apache HTTP server;
- Support for IBM s390x;
- Support for PKCS8 for ED25519;
- Support for callback calls in the Certificate Manager;
- Support for elliptic curves P384 for SP.
- API for BIO and EVP;
- Implementation of AES-OFB and AES-CFB modes;
- Support for elliptic curves Curve448, X448, and Ed448;
- Support for builds for Renesas Synergy S7G2 utilizing hardware acceleration.
- A new release of the compact cryptographic library is now available
