Review Summary

Reviewed `aws-lc/crypto/fipsmodule/cpucap/cpu_intel.c`, which is a CPU feature-detection routine for x86/x86_64 that probes CPUID/XGETBV state, normalizes capability bits, and optionally applies the documented `OPENSSL_ia32cap` environment override. I did not find concrete indicators of install hooks, network/exfiltration, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, or persistence in this file. Reviewed `aws-lc/crypto/fipsmodule/curve25519/curve25519.c`, which implements Ed25519/X25519 key generation, signing, verification, and public-key derivation using local cryptographic primitives and FIPS self-test/service-indicator hooks. I found no concrete indicators of install-time execution, network/exfiltration, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, persistence, or other supply-chain compromise behavior in this file. Reviewed the HKDF EVP_PKEY implementation in aws-lc/crypto/fipsmodule/evp/p_hkdf.c. It is a straightforward key-derivation wrapper around OpenSSL HKDF primitives, and I found no concrete malicious or supply-chain indicators: no install hooks, network or exfiltration logic, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, or persistence behavior.
