Openquantumsafe

Open Quantum Safe maintains liboqs, a narrowly scoped but strategically important cryptographic library that integrates post-quantum algorithm implementations into applications across research, infrastructure, and emerging quantum-safe deployment efforts. Vulnerabilities affecting the vendor skew toward serious outcomes, with an elevated share reaching critical severity, and recur through weakness classes including sensitive-information exposure, out-of-bounds reads, timing-channel side channels, and cryptographic algorithm weaknesses that reflect the complexity of novel post-quantum primitives and their constant-time implementation demands. Defenders tracking quantum-safe migration should inventory products that depend on liboqs and treat this library's security advisories as high-priority given the cryptographic trust boundary it occupies; live severity and exploitation figures are shown alongside this summary.
