  <summary>Feature update for bouncycastle</summary>
  <description>This update for bouncycastle fixes the following issues:

bouncycastle was updated to version 1.72:

* Defects Fixed:

- There were parameter errors in XMSS^MT OIDs for
      XMSSMT_SHA2_40/4_256 and XMSSMT_SHA2_60/3_256. These have
      been fixed.
    - There was an error in Merkle tree construction for the
      Evidence Records (ERS) implementation which could result in
      invalid roots been timestamped. ERS now produces an
      ArchiveTimeStamp for each data object/group with an associated
      reduced hash tree. The reduced hash tree is now calculated as
      a simple path to the root of the tree for each record.
    - OpenPGP will now ignore signatures marked as non-exportable
      on encoding.
    - A tagging calculation error in GCMSIV which could result in
      incorrect tags has been fixed.
    - Issues around Java 17 which could result in failing tests
      have been addressed.

* Additional Features and Functionality:

- BCJSSE: TLS 1.3 is now enabled by default where no explicit
      protocols are supplied (e.g. "TLS" or "Default" SSLContext
      algorithms, or SSLContext.getDefault() method).
    - BCJSSE: Rewrite SSLEngine implementation to improve compatibility
      with SunJSSE.
    - BCJSSE: Support export of keying material via extension API.
    - (D)TLS: Add support for 'tls-exporter' channel binding per RFC 9266.
    - (D)TLS (low-level API): By default, only (D)TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 are
      offered now. Earlier versions are still supported if explicitly
      enabled. Users may need to check they are offering suitable
      cipher suites for TLS 1.3.
    - (D)TLS (low-level API): Add support for raw public keys per RFC 7250.
    - CryptoServicesRegistrar now has a setServicesConstraints() method
      on it which can be used to selectively turn off algorithms.
    - The NIST PQC Alternate Candidate, Picnic, has been added to the low
      level API and the BCPQC provider.
    - SPHINCS+ has been upgraded to the latest submission, SPHINCS+ 3.1
      and support for Haraka has been added.
    - Evidence records now support timestamp renewal and hash renewal.
    - The SIKE Alternative Candidate NIST Post Quantum Algorithm has
      been added to the low-level PQC API.
    - The NTRU Round 3 Finalist Candidate NIST Post Quantum Algorithm
      has been added to the low-level API and the BCPQC provider.
    - The Falcon Finalist NIST Post Quantum Algorithm has been added to
      the low-level API and the BCPQC provider.
    - The CRYSTALS-Kyber Finalist NIST Post Quantum Algorithm has been
      added to the low-level API and the BCPQC provider.
    - Argon2 Support has been added to the OpenPGP API.
    - XDH IES has now been added to the BC provider.
    - The OpenPGP API now supports AEAD encryption and decryption.
    - The NTRU Prime Alternative Candidate NIST Post Quantum Algorithms
      have been added to the low-level API and the BCPQC provider.
    - The CRYSTALS-Dilithium Finalist NIST Post Quantum Algorithm has
      been added to the low-level API and the BCPQC provider.
    - The BIKE NIST Post Quantum Alternative/Round-4 Candidate has been
      added to the low-level API and the BCPQC provider.
    - The HQC NIST Post Quantum Alternative/Round-4 Candidate has been
      added to the low-level API and the BCPQC provider.
    - Grain128AEAD has been added to the lightweight API.
    - A fast version of CRC24 has been added for use with the PGP API.
    - Some additional methods and fields have been exposed in the
      PGPOnePassSignature class to (hopefully) make it easier to
      deal with nested signatures.
    - CMP support classes have been updated to reflect the latest
      editions to the the draft RFC "Lightweight Certificate Management
      Protocol (CMP) Profile".
    - Support has been added to the PKCS#12 implementation for the
      Oracle trusted certificate attribute.
    - Performance of our BZIP2 classes has been improved.

* Notes:

- Keep in mind the PQC algorithms are still under development and
      we are still at least a year and a half away from published standards.
      This means the algorithms may still change so by all means experiment,
      but do not use the PQC algoritms for anything long term.
    - The legacy "Rainbow" and "McEliece" implementations have been
      removed from the BCPQC provider. The underlying classes are
      still present if required. Other legacy algorithm implementations
      can be found under the org.bouncycastle.pqc.legacy package.

* Security Notes:

- The PQC SIKE algorithm is provided for research purposes only.
      It should now be regarded as broken. The SIKE implementation
      will be withdrawn in BC 1.73.
