Pull Request Overview
This PR updates the implementation to conform to draft 13 of the Composite ML-DSA specification. The changes primarily involve updating OID values and standardizing domain separator strings for ECDSA variants.
Key Changes:
- Updated all 18 Composite ML-DSA algorithm OIDs from the draft 12 range to the draft 13 standardized range
- Standardized ECDSA variant domain separator strings to explicitly include "ECDSA" in their names

| File | Description |
|---|---|
| src/libraries/Common/src/System/Security/Cryptography/Oids.cs | Updated all 18 Composite ML-DSA OID constants from 2.16.840.1.114027.80.9.1.* to 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.6.* range (37-54) |
| src/libraries/Common/tests/System/Security/Cryptography/AlgorithmImplementations/CompositeMLDsa/CompositeMLDsaTestHelpers.cs | Updated test helper OID mappings to match the new OID values in Oids.cs |
| src/libraries/Common/src/System/Security/Cryptography/CompositeMLDsaManaged.cs | Updated 6 ECDSA variant domain separator strings to include "ECDSA" for clarity and consistency with draft 13 |

…0961) (#121555) Backport of #120601 and #120961 to release/10.0 # Description Backports Draft 12 and Draft 13 spec changes for Composite ML-DSA. This PR combines two related updates: **Draft 12 changes (#120601):** - Mandate parameters field in ECPrivateKey (previously omitted) - `CompositeMLDsaAlgorithm.cs`: Calculate parameters field size for EC curves (P256/P384/P521/brainpool variants) - `CompositeMLDsaManaged.ECDsa.cs`: Validate parameters presence and curve match; write parameters with context-specific tag [0] - `CompositeMLDsaManaged.cs`: Update spec references from draft-08 to draft-12 - Test updates: Add validation for wrong/missing/implicit/explicit curves; update expected key sizes per spec Table 4 **Draft 13 changes (#120961):** - Update OIDs from experimental range (2.16.840.1.114027.80.9.1.*) to official IANA-assigned range (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.6.*) - `Oids.cs`: Update all Composite ML-DSA OID constants to new range - `CompositeMLDsaManaged.cs`: Add "ECDSA" to domain separation strings (e.g., "COMPSIG-MLDSA65-P256-SHA512" → "COMPSIG-MLDSA65-ECDSA-P256-SHA512") - Test data and helpers: Update to reflect new OIDs and domain strings # Customer Impact Without these fixes, Composite ML-DSA keys generated in .NET 10 would not conform to Draft 12 and Draft 13 of the IETF spec, causing interoperability failures with other implementations following the updated standards. # Regression No. This updates implementation to match spec evolution from Draft 8 to Draft 13. # Testing All 1,015 CompositeMLDsa tests pass. Added test coverage for: - Wrong curve OID rejection - Missing parameters rejection - Implicit curve parameters rejection - Explicit curve parameters rejection - Correct parameter serialization for all supported curves - New OID and domain string validation # Risk Low. Changes are confined to Composite ML-DSA implementation (preview feature). Validates existing behavior is maintained while adding required spec compliance. Breaking changes are intentional and necessary for spec conformance. <!-- START COPILOT CODING AGENT TIPS --> --- ✨ Let Copilot coding agent [set things up for you](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/new?title=✨+Set+up+Copilot+instructions&body=Configure%20instructions%20for%20this%20repository%20as%20documented%20in%20%5BBest%20practices%20for%20Copilot%20coding%20agent%20in%20your%20repository%5D%28https://gh.io/copilot-coding-agent-tips%29%2E%0A%0A%3COnboard%20this%20repo%3E&assignees=copilot) — coding agent works faster and does higher quality work when set up for your repo. --------- Co-authored-by: copilot-swe-agent[bot] <198982749+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Pranav Senthilnathan <pranas@microsoft.com> Co-authored-by: Kevin Jones <vcsjones@github.com>
