Description

As Dilithium (https://pq-crystals.org/dilithium/data/dilithium-specification-round2.pdf) has been recently added to CIRCL (https://github.com/cloudflare/circl/pull/87), it might be worth adding it here, so some parts of the PKI are rendered post-quantum safe. This issue is created to track the ideas/problems/concerns around this.

Research direction

Start by reading the Dilithium specification linked in the issue and the referenced CIRCL pull request. Then identify how CFSSL currently integrates cryptographic algorithms into its PKI and TLS toolkit; the issue names no files, tests, entry points, or acceptance criteria, so the implementation scope and definition of done still need to be established.
