Review Summary

Reviewed `aws-lc/crypto/fipsmodule/ml_kem/mlkem/symmetric.h`, a small C header that only defines ML-KEM/FIPS 203 macro wrappers around SHA3/SHAKE primitives and x4 variants. I checked for install-time hooks, network/exfiltration, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, persistence, and other hidden execution paths, and found no concrete malicious or supply-chain indicators in this file. Reviewed this ARM assembly routine for modular reduction in secp256k1; it only loads four 64-bit limbs, performs constant-time arithmetic and conditional selects, then stores the reduced result. I found no concrete malicious or supply-chain indicators in this file, and no install hooks, network/exfiltration, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, or persistence behavior. Reviewed this header-only macro shim for the ML-DSA symmetric/XOF helpers. It only aliases AWS-LC SHAKE128/SHAKE256 context and absorb/squeeze functions, and I found no concrete indicators of install hooks, network/exfiltration, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, or persistence in the target file. Reviewed `aws-lc/crypto/fipsmodule/rand/cpu_jitter_test.cc`, which is a small GoogleTest exercising the jitterentropy collector allocation, entropy reads, reset behavior, and version check. I found no concrete malicious or supply-chain indicators in this file: no install hooks, network or exfiltration code, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, persistence, or hidden subprocess execution. Reviewed `aws-lc/crypto/x509/v3_int.c`, which only defines small X.509 extension helper callbacks and static `X509V3_EXT_METHOD` tables for CRL number, delta CRL, and inhibit-any-policy handling. I found no concrete indicators of install hooks, network/exfiltration, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, or persistence in this file.
