Hello,

I understand from the Chromium Web Crypto README 
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/refs/heads/main/components/webcrypto/README.md>
 
that BoringSSL is used for cryptography. I also understand that BoringSSL 
uses a library BoringCrypto 
<https://boringssl.googlesource.com/boringssl/+/master/crypto/fipsmodule/FIPS.md>.
 


My question is: *for the algorithms made available through Chromium's Web 
Crypto API, are some/all of them using BoringCrypto under the hood?*

I ask because there is a version of BoringCrypto that is FIPS validated 
<https://csrc.nist.gov/Projects/Cryptographic-Module-Validation-Program/Certificate/3678>,
 
which is relevant to what I am currently working on. I understand that the 
version of BoringCrypto included in a given version of Chromium may not be 
FIPS validated.

Thank you
