[SECURITY] Fedora 42 Update: perl-Data-Entropy-0.008-1.fc42

This module maintains a concept of a current selection of entropy source. Algorithms that require entropy, such as those in Data::Entropy::Algorithms, can use the source nominated by this module, avoiding the need for entropy source objects to be explicitly passed around. This is convenient becau...

SUSE CVE-2024-58036
