Review Summary

Reviewed the AES-CBC-HMAC-SHA256 TLS cipher implementation in `aws-lc/crypto/cipher_extra/e_aes_cbc_hmac_sha256.c`. It contains only in-memory key setup, TLS AAD handling, CBC encrypt/decrypt, HMAC computation, padding removal, and constant-time MAC verification; I found no concrete indicators of install hooks, network/exfiltration, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, or persistence. `aws-lc/crypto/ecdh_extra/ecdh_test.cc` is a C++ unit-test file for ECDH behavior, exercising curve selection, key construction, Wycheproof vector validation, and group-mismatch checks. I reviewed it for install-time hooks, network/exfiltration, credential or environment access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, persistence, and other hidden payload execution, and found no concrete malicious or supply-chain indicators. Reviewed `aws-lc/crypto/fipsmodule/bn/gcd.c`, which implements big-number modular inverse routines and related FIPS-safe helpers using internal OpenSSL/AWS-LC primitives. I checked for install hooks, network or exfiltration paths, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, persistence, and other supply-chain indicators, and found none in this file.
