CVE-2026-41054

In src/havegecmd.c, the sockethandler function performs a credential check on the abstract UNIX socket \0/sys/entropy/haveged. However, while it detects if the connecting user is not root cred.uid != 0 and prepares a negative acknowledgement ASCIINAK, it fails to stop execution. The code proceeds...

Enable the haveged Service

The haveged service can generate an unpredictable stream of random numbers in a simple way. These random numbers can fill the system entropy pool, which can solve the problem of low system entropy in some cases. You are advised to enable this service to meet the needs of encryption, decryption, o...

[Haveged] A simple Entropy Daemon

The haveged project is an attempt to provide an easy-to-use, unpredictable random number generator based upon an adaptation of the HAVEGE algorithm. Haveged was created to remedy low-entropy conditions in the Linux random device that can occur under some workloads, especially on headless servers...
