<p>WebAssembly is a standard, a safe, portable, low-level code format. The
258+
security considerations associated with executing WebAssembly code are
259+
described in https://www.w3.org/TR/wasm-core/#security-considerations.</p>
260+
<p>The WebAssembly format includes no integrity or privacy protection. If
261+
such protection is needed it must be provided externally, e.g., through
262+
the use of HTTPS.</p>

<dd>The application/wasm media type is already in use as the type used to describe WebAssembly files when sent over HTTP to be executed by browsers, which is a common scenario.
