Yesterday, Daniel J. Bernstein published a paper alleging that Kyber-512, an encryption algorithm selected as a NIST post-quantum contender, wasn't nearly as secure as its stewards say.

Wow.
Given that I’ve never heard of it (and I routinely work with security-related things like OpenSSH and TLS, certs, etc.) I’ll assume the impact of this finding is relatively low.
It’ll stay low impact until suddenly one day having a reliable post-quantum encryption scheme becomes rather important…
