📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds configurable TLS, mTLS, cipher, protocol, and ECDH curve settings across the controller, Envoy, and policy engine. It adds optional REST and admin TLS listeners, certificate wiring, xDS identity authorization, ADS-based SDS configuration, runtime TLS transport settings, and PQC fallback guidance.

Changes

Gateway TLS and xDS security

Layer / File(s) Summary
Gateway TLS configuration and Envoy translation
gateway/configs/*, gateway/gateway-controller/pkg/config/*, gateway/gateway-controller/pkg/xds/*, gateway/gateway-runtime/Dockerfile, gateway/Makefile
Gateway TLS settings add protocol, cipher, and ECDH curve validation. Controller xDS uses mTLS settings and identity allowlists. Envoy receives upstream and downstream curve lists. SDS uses ADS without a dedicated SDS cluster.
xDS mTLS configuration and identity authorization
gateway/gateway-controller/pkg/tlsauth/*, gateway/gateway-controller/pkg/policyxds/server.go, gateway/gateway-controller/pkg/xds/server.go, gateway/gateway-controller/cmd/controller/main.go
The controller and policy xDS servers accept mTLS options, verify client certificates, reject unauthorized identities, and apply gRPC message and stream limits. Invalid xDS TLS configuration terminates startup.

REST and policy-engine admin TLS

Layer / File(s) Summary
REST and admin TLS listeners
gateway/gateway-controller/cmd/controller/server_tls.go, gateway/gateway-controller/cmd/controller/main.go, gateway/gateway-runtime/policy-engine/internal/config/*, gateway/gateway-runtime/policy-engine/internal/admin/*, gateway/docker-compose.yaml
The controller REST API and policy-engine admin server support optional TLS listeners. Validation covers credentials, protocol versions, ciphers, curves, and port conflicts. TLS listeners start beside plaintext listeners and shut down gracefully. Tests cover hybrid negotiation, classical fallback, protocol limits, cipher selection, and invalid settings.

Runtime xDS TLS wiring

Layer / File(s) Summary
Runtime xDS TLS wiring
gateway/gateway-runtime/docker-entrypoint.sh, gateway/gateway-runtime/policy-engine/*, gateway/gateway-runtime/router/config/*, gateway/distribution/docker-compose.yaml, gateway/docker-compose.debug.yaml, gateway/configs/config-template.toml
Runtime configuration passes xDS certificates, ciphers, and ECDH curves to Envoy and the policy engine. Envoy can use a generated TLS transport socket or retain plaintext. Distribution files mount the xDS certificates and configure separate Envoy and policy-engine identities.

Configurable PQC fallback guidance

Layer / File(s) Summary
Configurable PQC fallback guidance
.claude/rules/js-post-quantum-cryptography.md, .claude/rules/post-quantum-cryptography.md
The guidance documents configuration-gated hybrid PQC, classical fallback for legacy peers, hybrid TLS curve ordering, and negotiated-mode visibility.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 26371

This PR changes TLS, certificate, curve, and PQC behavior but still permits plaintext administrative access, can silently omit an enabled secure listener, lacks connection/resource limits, and may fail against classical-only peers or unsupported runtimes. These security, availability, and compatibility risks should be resolved or explicitly accepted before merging.

84-97: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Consider rejecting TLS1_0 and TLS1_1 for the admin listener.

ValidateAdminTLSVersions accepts TLS1_0 and TLS1_1 as a minimum version. Both protocols are deprecated. The admin listener serves /config_dump and the pprof endpoints, so a downgraded floor weakens a sensitive surface. The default of TLS1_2 is correct, but an operator can still configure a weaker floor.

Set the accepted floor to TLS1_2 for this listener, or document why the router's wider vocabulary is reused here.

Add a case for the metrics/admin TLS port conflict.

The table covers the admin.port and server.extproc_port conflicts. It does not cover the new check in gateway/gateway-runtime/policy-engine/internal/config/config.go at Lines 786-788, which rejects metrics.port == admin.tls.port. That branch requires metrics.enabled = true, so no existing case reaches it.

Replace the fixed readiness sleeps with a readiness poll.

Each new TLS test waits 100 * time.Millisecond after Start before the first request. The TLS listener binds inside a goroutine, so the wait is a guess. On a loaded CI machine these tests fail with connection-refused rather than a real assertion failure.

Extract one helper that dials the port until it accepts, with a bounded deadline, and use it in all five tests.

♻️ Proposed helper
// waitForListener blocks until addr accepts a TCP connection or the deadline passes.
func waitForListener(t *testing.T, port int) {
	t.Helper()
	deadline := time.Now().Add(5 * time.Second)
	for time.Now().Before(deadline) {
		conn, err := net.DialTimeout("tcp", fmt.Sprintf("127.0.0.1:%d", port), 100*time.Millisecond)
		if err == nil {
			conn.Close()
			return
		}
		time.Sleep(10 * time.Millisecond)
	}
	t.Fatalf("listener on port %d did not become ready", port)
}

Then replace each time.Sleep(100 * time.Millisecond) with waitForListener(t, plainPort) and waitForListener(t, tlsPort).

Check the Close errors on both PEM files.

golangci-lint errcheck flags the unchecked certOut.Close and keyOut.Close. The deferred Close also hides a flush error, which would leave a truncated PEM file and produce a confusing handshake failure instead of a clear helper failure.

Close the response body on the discarded return value.

golangci-lint bodyclose flags Line 613. The handshake is expected to fail, so resp is normally nil. If the listener ever accepted the TLS 1.1 client, this test would leak the body and still pass, because the assertion only checks err.

Set the full timeout set and MaxHeaderBytes on the TLS server.

The new tlsServer sets only ReadHeaderTimeout. ReadTimeout, WriteTimeout, and IdleTimeout are zero, so a slow client can hold a connection open indefinitely after the headers are read. MaxHeaderBytes is also unset. The admin listener is a small, low-traffic surface, which makes it an easy target for connection exhaustion.

Source the values from configuration rather than hardcoding them.

As per coding guidelines: "For every Go HTTP server, configure non-zero ReadTimeout, WriteTimeout, and IdleTimeout from configuration, set MaxHeaderBytes, wrap request bodies with http.MaxBytesReader."

🛡️ Proposed fix
 			tlsServer = &http.Server{
 				Addr:              fmt.Sprintf(":%d", cfg.TLS.Port),
 				Handler:           mux,
 				ReadHeaderTimeout: 30 * time.Second,
+				ReadTimeout:       cfg.TLS.ReadTimeout,
+				WriteTimeout:      cfg.TLS.WriteTimeout,
+				IdleTimeout:       cfg.TLS.IdleTimeout,
+				MaxHeaderBytes:    cfg.TLS.MaxHeaderBytes,
 				TLSConfig:         tlsConfig,
 			}

Add the corresponding fields with safe non-zero defaults to AdminTLSConfig in gateway/gateway-runtime/policy-engine/internal/config/config.go. Apply the same values to the plaintext server at Lines 68-72 so both listeners are bounded.

Which Go release added the exported tls.X25519MLKEM768 constant in crypto/tls?

💡 Result:

The Go release that added the exported tls.X25519MLKEM768 constant to the crypto/tls package is Go 1.24 [1][2]. This release introduced support for the hybrid post-quantum key exchange mechanism X25519MLKEM768, enabling it by default when Config.CurvePreferences is nil [1]. The addition replaced the experimental X25519Kyber768Draft00 mechanism [1][2].

Citations:


Update the Go version in both comments. tls.X25519MLKEM768 was added in Go 1.24. Go 1.23 only provided the experimental X25519Kyber768Draft00 group. The module already requires Go 1.26.5, so this is a documentation correction, not a compilation issue.

🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

An enabled admin TLS listener fails open at every stage. When an operator sets admin.tls.enabled = true, no failure after that point stops startup or is reported. Validation only checks that the certificate and key paths are non-empty. NewServer logs a buildAdminTLSConfig error and leaves tlsServer nil. Start runs ListenAndServeTLS in a goroutine and only logs a bind or certificate error. The process then reports healthy while the requested TLS admin listener does not exist, and the admin API is reachable only in plaintext. Each site must fail closed for the guarantee to hold.

  • gateway/gateway-runtime/policy-engine/internal/config/config.go#L756-L761: load the key pair during Validate with tls.LoadX509KeyPair and return an error, so unusable certificate material stops startup.
  • gateway/gateway-runtime/policy-engine/internal/admin/server.go#L83-L95: return the buildAdminTLSConfig error to the caller instead of logging it and continuing with tlsServer nil. Change NewServer to return (*Server, error), or keep the error on the Server and refuse to Start.
  • gateway/gateway-runtime/policy-engine/internal/admin/server.go#L139-L146: propagate the ListenAndServeTLS error out of the goroutine over a channel, and make Start return it when TLS was explicitly enabled.

As per coding guidelines: "GO-AUTH-011: Startup must validate the effective security configuration and fail closed when enabled authentication produces no authenticators; disabling authentication must be explicit and off by default."

Note that the existing test TestServer_TLSListener_InvalidEcdhCurves in gateway/gateway-runtime/policy-engine/internal/admin/server_test.go asserts the current fail-open behavior of NewServer. Update it together with this change.

Inline comments:
In @.claude/rules/js-post-quantum-cryptography.md:
- Line 23: Update the runtime requirement in the hybrid TLS guidance to require
OpenSSL 3.5 or later, rather than treating Node.js 22/OpenSSL 3.2+ as
sufficient. Alternatively, specify a runtime capability check before enabling
X25519MLKEM768; apply the same correction to the corresponding requirement on
line 70.
- Around line 42-50: Update the encapsulate example to use ESM imports and the
current noble APIs: replace x25519.utils.randomPrivateKey() with x25519.keygen()
while preserving the ephemeral key generation and subsequent
public/shared-secret flow, or pin package versions that support the existing
API.

In @.claude/rules/post-quantum-cryptography.md:
- Around line 23-26: Update the TLS guidance in the hybrid PQC section to state
that tls.X25519MLKEM768 requires Go 1.24+, while Go 1.23 uses the experimental
X25519Kyber768Draft00 mechanism. Keep hybrid and classical groups allowed in
tls.Config.CurvePreferences, but remove the requirement that the hybrid group
appear first or that list order indicates wire-level negotiation; identify the
effective negotiated group separately.

In `@gateway/gateway-controller/cmd/controller/main.go`:
- Around line 765-770: Update the TLS http.Server initialization to set non-zero
configuration-sourced ReadTimeout, WriteTimeout, IdleTimeout, and MaxHeaderBytes
values alongside ReadHeaderTimeout. In the shared handler path, wrap incoming
request bodies with http.MaxBytesReader using the configured request-size limit,
preserving existing handler behavior.

In `@gateway/gateway-controller/pkg/config/config.go`:
- Around line 1450-1475: The TLS validation block must reject a server.tls.port
value that matches controller.policy_server.port, alongside the existing API and
XDS port collision checks. Add the corresponding validation error and a
regression test covering the collision while TLS is enabled.
- Around line 309-321: Update the gateway management API startup flow in main.go
so TLS is enabled by default and the plaintext listener is disabled by default.
Add an explicit development-mode configuration setting that opts into plaintext
serving, and ensure the existing plaintext listener starts only when that
setting is enabled while preserving the TLS listener behavior.

In `@gateway/gateway-controller/pkg/config/server_tls.go`:
- Around line 47-49: Update the list-parsing validation in the affected TLS
policy parsers to reject empty elements produced by splitting, including
trailing commas and repeated commas, instead of continuing past them. Ensure
malformed cryptographic policy fails validation, and add tests covering both
trailing and repeated empty entries.
- Around line 27-36: Update the comment above serverEcdhCurvesByName to state
that tls.X25519MLKEM768 is implemented natively by Go 1.24 or later, leaving the
map and its entries unchanged.

Prefer `@noble/post-quantum` for pure-JS (no native bindings, audited); use `liboqs-node` when FIPS 140-3 or HSM integration is required. Use `-768`/`dilithium3` (NIST Level 3) as the minimum, escalating to `-1024`/`dilithium5` for long-lived or high-assurance keys.
3. **Hybrid classical + PQC during transition.** Combine X25519 + ML-KEM-768 (IETF RFC 9180 pattern) so security degrades gracefully to whichever primitive remains unbroken — never deploy PQC standalone until the library has a stable 1.x release with a public audit. For TLS, Node.js 22+/OpenSSL 3.2+ supports `tls.createServer({ ecdhCurve: 'X25519MLKEM768:X25519' })` — list the hybrid curve first.
3. **Hybrid classical + PQC as the configured default, with a documented classical fallback.** When PQC is enabled in configuration, combine X25519 + ML-KEM-768 (IETF RFC 9180 pattern) so security degrades gracefully to whichever primitive remains unbroken — never deploy PQC standalone until the library has a stable 1.x release with a public audit. For TLS, Node.js 22+/OpenSSL 3.2+ supports `tls.createServer({ ecdhCurve: 'X25519MLKEM768:X25519' })` — list the hybrid curve first, keeping `X25519` (and other configured classical curves) after it so a handshake with a peer that doesn't yet support the hybrid curve still succeeds instead of failing closed. Surface the negotiated/effective curve (config, logs, or a status field) so operators can tell whether a connection actually ran PQC or fell back to classical.

OpenSSL X25519MLKEM768 support version 3.5 SSL_CONF_cmd

💡 Result:

OpenSSL 3.5 introduced full support for the hybrid post-quantum key exchange group X25519MLKEM768 [1][2][3]. This group combines classical X25519 ECDH with the ML-KEM-768 post-quantum algorithm, offering quantum-resistant key exchange for TLS 1.3 connections [4][5][6]. SSL_CONF_cmd Support You can configure X25519MLKEM768 using the SSL_CONF_cmd interface [1][2]. Specifically, for applications that use this interface (such as nginx), you can set the supported groups via the command: SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Groups", "X25519MLKEM768:X25519:secp256r1:secp384r1"); Note that while X25519MLKEM768 is included in the default TLS supported groups list starting in OpenSSL 3.5 [1][3], using SSL_CONF_cmd is the correct approach to explicitly manage or prioritize it in your configuration [7]. Key Implementation Details: 1. Availability: X25519MLKEM768 is a built-in feature of OpenSSL 3.5 and later [1][2][3]. 2. Compatibility: It is designed for TLS 1.3 [4][6]. 3. Configuration: Because X25519MLKEM768 is a hybrid group, some older configuration methods (like specific ECDH-only settings in some proxy software) may not recognize the name, making SSL_CONF_cmd the required mechanism to pass the group name directly to OpenSSL [7]. 4. Known Issues: Some older versions of OpenSSL or specific API calls like SSL_set1_groups may have had issues recognizing the group name initially; using SSL_set1_groups_list or SSL_CONF_cmd is the recommended practice for ensuring it is set correctly [8]. As of August 2026, X25519MLKEM768 is the default TLS 1.3 hybrid group in OpenSSL 3.5+, providing automatic post-quantum protection for compatible connections without requiring application-level code changes [5][3].

Node.js 22 bundled OpenSSL version release documentation

💡 Result:

Node.js 22 bundles OpenSSL as part of its official binary distributions [1][2]. The bundled version has been updated during the lifecycle of the release line: * Initial LTS Release: Upon entering Long Term Support (LTS) in October 2024 (version 22.11.0), Node.js 22 bundled OpenSSL 3.0.x [3]. * Major Update: In version 22.20.0 (released September 2025), Node.js 22 was updated to bundle OpenSSL 3.5.2 to ensure continued support through the Node.js 22 End-of-Life date of April 30, 2027 [1][2]. * Recent Updates: As of the latest updates in mid-2026, the bundled OpenSSL has been further updated. For instance, version 22.23.2 (released July 2026) includes OpenSSL 3.5.7 [4][5]. These updates apply to official Node.js binaries and builds using the default configuration; they do not affect third-party builds that link against external OpenSSL libraries [1][2]. Change logs for Node.js 22 provide the most accurate, up-to-date information regarding the specific OpenSSL version included in any given minor or patch release [4][5].

@noble/curves v2 x25519 keygen randomSecretKey import ed25519.js documentation

💡 Result:

In the @noble/curves library, X25519 (ECDH on Curve25519) and Ed25519 are distinct modules with different APIs, though they share mathematical relationships [1][2][3][4]. X25519 Key Generation To generate keys for X25519, you use the x25519 module [4]. You can generate a random secret key using utils.randomPrivateKey [4], which is the recommended method for generating a valid, secure private key: import { x25519 } from '@noble/curves/ed25519.js'; const priv = x25519.utils.randomPrivateKey; const pub = x25519.getPublicKey(priv); The library also provides a keygen function that returns both the secret and public key [5][6]: const { secretKey, publicKey } = x25519.keygen; Ed25519 Integration While both x25519 and ed25519 are exported from the @noble/curves/ed25519.js file, they are separate implementations [1][4]. You do not typically import Ed25519 to perform X25519 key generation [4]. However, if you need to convert an existing Ed25519 key to its X25519 Montgomery equivalent, the library provides helper functions [4]: import { ed25519, edwardsToMontgomeryPub, edwardsToMontgomeryPriv } from '@noble/curves/ed25519.js'; const edKeys = ed25519.keygen; const xPub = edwardsToMontgomeryPub(edKeys.publicKey); const xPriv = edwardsToMontgomeryPriv(edKeys.secretKey); Key Points: - Use sub-imports: Always import from specific files (e.g., @noble/curves/ed25519.js) rather than the main package to ensure small application bundle sizes [1][3][4]. - utils.randomPrivateKey: This is the standard utility for generating a cryptographically secure 32-byte secret key [4]. - RFC 7748: The X25519 implementation conforms to RFC 7748 [1][4]. - Keygen: The keygen method can optionally accept a seed (e.g., keygen(seed)) to allow for deterministic key generation [5][2].

@noble/post-quantum ml-kem.js import ml_kem768 documentation

💡 Result:

To use ml_kem768 in the @noble/post-quantum package, you must perform a sub-import from the ml-kem.js module [1][2][3]. Import syntax: import { ml_kem768 } from '@noble/post-quantum/ml-kem.js'; Usage example: The following example demonstrates key generation, encapsulation, and decapsulation [2][3][4]: import { ml_kem768 } from '@noble/post-quantum/ml-kem.js'; import { randomBytes } from '@noble/post-quantum/utils.js'; // 1. Generate keys (seed is optional) const seed = randomBytes(64); const aliceKeys = ml_kem768.keygen(seed); // 2. Encapsulate (Bob generates shared secret using Alice's public key) const { cipherText, sharedSecret: bobShared } = ml_kem768.encapsulate(aliceKeys.publicKey); // 3. Decapsulate (Alice retrieves shared secret using her secret key) const aliceShared = ml_kem768.decapsulate(cipherText, aliceKeys.secretKey); // Now aliceShared === bobShared Key considerations: * Security Warning: ML-KEM is a Key Encapsulation Mechanism (KEM) and does not inherently verify the identity of the party sending the ciphertext [5][3][4]. Unlike ECDH, if an incorrect public key is used, decapsulate will return a different shared secret rather than throwing an error; you should verify the integrity of the keys used [2][5][4]. * Probabilistic nature: ML-KEM is probabilistic and relies on the quality of your system's CSPRNG [5]. * Hybrid options: The library also provides hybrid constructions (e.g., ML-KEM-768 combined with X25519 or P-256) via the @noble/post-quantum/hybrid.js module if you require compatibility with classical algorithms [1][6][4].

3. **Hybrid classical + PQC as the configured default, with a documented classical fallback.** When PQC is enabled in configuration, combine X25519 + ML-KEM-768 (IETF RFC 9180 / NIST SP 800-227 pattern) so security degrades gracefully to classical if the PQC primitive is flawed, and to PQC if a CRQC appears. Don't deploy PQC standalone until the library is validated at v1.0+. For TLS, use Go 1.23+ `crypto/tls` with `tls.X25519MLKEM768` as the first `CurvePreferences` entry — list P-256/P-384 after it (not remove them outright) so a handshake with a peer that doesn't yet support the hybrid curve, such as current Envoy/legacy gateway builds, still succeeds rather than failing closed. The negotiated/effective cipher suite must be surfaced (config, logs, or a status field) so operators can tell whether a given connection actually ran PQC or fell back to classical.
4. **Key/ciphertext size awareness.** ML-KEM-768 public keys are 1184 B and ciphertexts 1088 B; ML-DSA-65 signatures are 3309 B (public key 1952 B). These do not fit RSA-sized `VARCHAR(512)`/`STRING` columns — size schema migrations for `BYTEA`/`BLOB`, and account for the size in JWT/HTTP payload budgets. Never truncate a PQC key or signature for storage convenience — truncation silently invalidates the cryptographic guarantee.
5. **Randomness and nonce safety.** Key generation must use `crypto/rand` exclusively — never `math/rand`, `time.Now().UnixNano()`, or a seeded PRNG. AES-GCM nonces (96-bit) must be freshly generated per encryption via `crypto/rand.Read` and never reused under the same key; rotate the key after 2³² encryptions. CIRCL's ML-KEM `EncapsulateTo` draws its own randomness from `crypto/rand` internally when passed a `nil` seed — don't supply external randomness unless the API requires it.
6. **No algorithm negotiation in sensitive paths.** Never accept the algorithm from the peer/token header in authentication or key-exchange flows — allowlist the exact expected identifiers and reject any deviation with a generic error (algorithm-confusion attacks apply to PQC negotiation too). In JWS/JWT, set `algorithms: ["ML-DSA-65"]` explicitly; never accept `"none"` or legacy `"RS256"`.

Go crypto/tls X25519MLKEM768 added Go 1.24 CurvePreferences order ignored

💡 Result:

Starting with Go 1.24, the crypto/tls package introduced the X25519MLKEM768 post-quantum key exchange mechanism [1][2]. A significant change in Go 1.24 is that the order of the CurvePreferences slice in tls.Config is ignored [3][2]. Instead, the crypto/tls package manages the priority of key exchange mechanisms using an internal, hardcoded preference order [3][4]. The contents of the user-provided CurvePreferences slice serve only to determine which mechanisms are enabled [3][2]. Key points regarding this behavior: - Internal Priority: Because the order is ignored, you cannot change the priority of supported key exchanges by reordering the elements in CurvePreferences [3][4]. - Enabling/Disabling: If you set CurvePreferences, the Go TLS implementation will only use the mechanisms present in that slice, filtered against the internal default list [3][5]. - Default Behavior: When CurvePreferences is nil (the default), X25519MLKEM768 is enabled automatically as part of the default suite [3][2]. - Overriding: You can disable the inclusion of X25519MLKEM768 by setting the GODEBUG=tlsmlkem=0 environment variable, or by explicitly providing a CurvePreferences slice that excludes it [3][2][5]. This design was implemented to ensure the package can safely and effectively prioritize secure, performant key exchanges while maintaining control over the negotiation order to mitigate downgrade attacks [6].

Correct the Go TLS compatibility guidance.

tls.X25519MLKEM768 requires Go 1.24; Go 1.23 used the experimental X25519Kyber768Draft00 mechanism. In Go 1.24 and later, tls.Config.CurvePreferences order does not control wire-level preference. Keep hybrid and classical groups in the allowed set, but do not require the hybrid group to be first or treat list order as negotiation evidence. Parser tests verify input order only.

Make plaintext management API serving a development-only opt-out.

The TLS listener is disabled by default and is additive to the plaintext management API. main.go starts the plaintext listener unconditionally. This can expose management credentials and API traffic without transport encryption.

Enable TLS for normal deployments. Disable the plaintext listener by default. Allow plaintext only through an explicit development-mode setting.

As per coding guidelines, “use TLS by default; plaintext HTTP must be an explicitly scoped development-mode opt-out.”

Reject collisions with controller.policy_server.port.

Validation does not compare server.tls.port with controller.policy_server.port. Both listeners run in this process. A matching port passes validation, then one listener fails to bind and the TLS management API can be unavailable.

Add this collision check and a regression test.

The tls.X25519MLKEM768 constant was introduced in Go 1.24 [1][2]. Starting with Go 1.24, this post-quantum key exchange mechanism was added to the crypto/tls package and enabled by default [1][2]. It replaced the experimental X25519Kyber768Draft00 mechanism that was present in earlier versions [1][2].

Apply one hybrid-first key-exchange rule to every xDS TLS leg. The three sites compose key-exchange group lists differently: one omits the classical fallback, one puts the hybrid group last, and one documents a classical-only list. Adopt one rule for all legs: list X25519MLKEM768 first, then X25519 and P-256.

  • gateway/docker-compose.debug.yaml#L98-L112: set POLICY_ENGINE_XDS_CLIENT_TLS_ECDH_CURVES=X25519MLKEM768,X25519,P-256 so the leg still negotiates when the controller offers classical groups only.
  • gateway/docker-compose.debug.yaml#L90-L97: set XDS_CLIENT_TLS_ECDH_CURVES=X25519MLKEM768,X25519,P-256 so BoringSSL prefers the hybrid group.
  • gateway/gateway-controller/pkg/config/xds_tls.go#L85-L93: document "X25519MLKEM768,X25519,P-256" as the expected value, state that Go ignores the listed order, and warn that a classical-only value removes the hybrid group from Go's default set.

As per coding guidelines, "use tls.X25519MLKEM768 as the first CurvePreferences entry — list P-256/P-384 after it (not remove them outright) so a handshake with a peer that doesn't yet support the hybrid curve ... still succeeds rather than failing closed".

🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Reject empty identities in the allowlist and in the peer check.

AllowedSet keeps every configured entry, including an empty or whitespace-only string. PeerIdentity returns an empty string for a certificate that has no SAN URI and an empty Subject CommonName. If the configured allowlist contains one empty entry, any certificate that clears the mTLS handshake is then authorized. ValidateXDSServerTLS checks only the list length, so this configuration passes validation.

Drop blank entries when building the set, and treat an empty derived identity as unauthorized.

 func AllowedSet(identities []string) map[string]bool {
 	set := make(map[string]bool, len(identities))
 	for _, id := range identities {

Do not package or broadly mount functional TLS private keys. The distribution currently includes fixed controller/server and client private keys, while the compose mounts expose credentials across processes. This allows installations or recipients to reuse identities and increases the blast radius of a compromised container. Generate installation-specific keys during setup or require externally provisioned secrets, and mount each process only the key and CA it needs.
