            Bug ID: 245778
           Summary: Implement Curve25519 on WebCrypto API
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

The Web Cryptography API currently only specifies the NIST P-256, P-384, and P-521 curves, and does not specify any "safe curves". Among the safe curves, Curve25519 and Curve448 have gained the most traction, and have been specified for use in TLS 1.3, for example. They have also been recommended by the Crypto Forum Research Group (CFRG) of the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF), and are expected to be approved by NIST.
