Review Summary

Reviewed `src/digest/sha2/mod.rs`, which is a small module hub that re-exports SHA-2 backend types/constants and conditionally includes an FFI module for specific targets. I checked for install hooks, network or exfiltration paths, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation/deobfuscation, and persistence behavior, and found no concrete malicious or supply-chain indicators in this file. Reviewed `src/bb/word.rs`, which only defines a `Word` type alias to `LeakyWord` and contains a commented-out future newtype refactor; I found no concrete malicious or supply-chain indicators, and no install hooks, network/exfiltration, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, or persistence behavior in this file. Reviewed `src/error/into_unspecified.rs`, which only defines `From` conversions that erase `untrusted::EndOfInput`, `core::array::TryFromSliceError`, and `KeyRejected` into `Unspecified`. I found no concrete malicious or supply-chain indicators and no install hooks, network/exfiltration, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, or persistence behavior in this file. Reviewed `include/ring-core/type_check.h`, a small portability header that only selects an `OPENSSL_STATIC_ASSERT` macro implementation for C++/MSVC versus C11-style builds. I checked for install-time execution, network or exfiltration paths, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, persistence, and other hidden payload behavior, and found none. Reviewed `src/aead/shift.rs`, which contains a small x86-gated helper that copies fixed-size blocks through an overlapping slice and applies a caller-provided transform to each block. I found no concrete indicators of install-time execution, network/exfiltration, credential access, dynamic code loading, obfuscation, or persistence in this file.
