Rustls 0.23.44 enables ML-DSA post-quantum certificate support by default in the Rust TLS library.
The supplied material is limited to a single feed's headline and partial summary with no article body, so anything beyond what those lines state cannot be claimed here. What is clear is that ML-DSA, described in the source as post-quantum secure, ships turned on by default in this release. Engineers upgrading should treat this as a default flip rather than an opt-in, though the source does not specify how to revert it, what the handshake cost is, or how ML-DSA chains negotiate against classical trust anchors.
