"We could add the prefix 0x40, but libgcrypt also supports format with no prefix. So, it is OK not to put the prefix."

famous last words.

I'd love to hear more about that, too! (I did dig into libgcrypt earlier today to try and see what's going on with these prefix-less ECC points. But my C reading comprehension was insufficient to get to the bottom of that.)

Found it! (Claude posting for Liz) Exact libgcrypt source documented here: https://github.com/pgpkeys-eu/go-crypto/pull/8#issuecomment-3708533303

Ed448 uses ECC_DIALECT_SAFECURVE which disables the 0x40 prefix → produces 57-byte points vs 58-byte expected by v6 spec.

Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Full-Linux FIPS 140-3 via wolfCrypt on Yocto Linux. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.
Achieving FIPS 140-3 compliance on embedded Linux becomes difficult when different applications and system components rely on different cryptographic libraries. This technical webinar shows how to build a unified FIPS 140-3 architecture on Yocto Linux using wolfCrypt FIPS. You'll see how to replace or override OpenSSL, NSS, GnuTLS, libgcrypt, and Linux kernel cryptography, then walk through the practical integration and verification process. This webinar covers • Building a unified FIPS 140-3 architecture on embedded Linux • Replacing OpenSSL, NSS, GnuTLS, libgcrypt, and kernel cryptography • Integrating wolfCrypt FIPS into Yocto and Poky • Generating FIPS configuration and verifying the module • Current FIPS certificates and upcoming PQC support Date: July 14 | 9:00 PT Duration: 60 minutes Register now to learn how to integrate wolfCrypt FIPS into Yocto Linux and verify a unified FIPS 140-3 implementation. As always, our webinar will includeQ&A throughout. If you have questions about any of the above, please contact us at facts@wolfssl.com or call us at +1 425 245 8247.
