wolfCrypt successfully encrypts using AES_128_GCM with an IV of length 0. According to the Wycheproof test suite, this is forbidden: "AES-GCM does not allow an IV of length 0. Encrypting with such an IV leaks the authentication key. Hence using an IV of length 0 is insecure even if the key itself is only used for a single encryption.
Thanks to Monorail, cryptoFuzz and G.V. for the report.
