The crypto library libgcrypt11 has a weakness in the random number generator.

CVE-2016-6313

Felix Dรถrre and Vladimir Klebanov from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology found a bug in the mixing functions of Libgcryptโ€™s random number generator. An attacker who obtains 4640 bits from the RNG can trivially predict the next 160 bits of output.

A first analysis on the impact of this bug in GnuPG shows that existing RSA keys are not weakened. For DSA and Elgamal keys it is also unlikely that the private key can be predicted from other public information.

For Debian 7 โ€˜Wheezyโ€™, these problems have been fixed in version 1.5.0-5+deb7u5.

We recommend that you upgrade your libgcrypt11 packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
