Support for Ed(X)448
#4264
Labels
area: webcrypto
enhancement
evaluation needed
proposal needs to be validated or tested before fully implementing it in k6
What?
Even though original WebCrypto API doesn't include support of the X448 and Ed448, some of webcrypto implementation does w3c/webcrypto#362
Even WebPlatfrom test suit tests this support, which led us to patch https://github.com/grafana/xk6-webcrypto/blob/main/webcrypto/tests/wpt-patches/WebCryptoAPI__generateKey__failures.js.patch
Draft can be found https://wicg.github.io/webcrypto-secure-curves/
From the Golang's perspective, support it's not so great like #4263 since out of the box there is no support in standard library and not expected in the near future golang/go#29390
In theory, we could use third-party https://github.com/cloudflare/circl which has support of the X448 and Ed448
Why?
Having support of X448 and Ed448 expands usage case for our implementation.
