libsodium ships a WASM build and a wasm2js translation in one file, tries WASM first, and silently falls back if instantiation throws. Under a plain script-src 'self' the fallback was taken on every popup load, announced by nothing but an uncaught CompileError. Measured on the vault's own Argon2id parameters (OPSLIMIT_INTERACTIVE, MEMLIMIT_INTERACTIVE), node 22: WASM 141-198ms per derivation, wasm2js 3204-3660ms. The work factor is identical either way — it is set by the ops and memory parameters, not by wall time — so the fallback bought no security and cost about 3.5s on every operation that asks for the password, which is every signature. Both manifests now declare script-src 'self' 'wasm-unsafe-eval'; object-src 'self' for extension pages: an object under content_security_policy.extension_pages for Chrome MV3, a bare string for Firefox MV2. The keyword permits compiling WebAssembly and nothing else — not eval() of strings, not inline script, not remote script — and reaching it requires already executing script in an extension page. 'unsafe-eval' is not granted. The silence is what made this dangerous, so the fallback is now loud at three levels: tests/manifest.test.js pins both policies to exactly that token set, failing make check if the grant is dropped or if anything is added beside it; tests/vaultBackend.test.js asserts the unit tests exercise the WASM backend, with a self-validating check that libsodium never swapped its fallback in; and the e2e suite compiles a WebAssembly module inside the real popup under the real manifest, with the harness allowlist entry that used to excuse the CompileError now deleted. The runtime fallback itself is kept — a wallet that refuses to decrypt is worse than a slow one — but vault.js now reports the backend and logs an error when it is not WASM.
