CVE-2014-5386
The mcryptcreateiv function in hphp/runtime/ext/mcrypt/extmcrypt.cpp in Facebook HipHop Virtual Machine HHVM before 3.3.0 does not seed the random number generator, which makes it easier for remote attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms by leveraging the use of a single...
Security Advisory-WPS PIN Offline Brute Force Cracking Vulnerability in Huawei Home Gateway Products
Some Huawei home gateways are affected by the PIN offline brute force cracking vulnerability of the WPS protocol because the random number generator RNG used in the supplier’s solution is not random enough. As a result, brute force cracking the PIN code is easier. After an attacker cracks the PIN...
FreeBSD : ntp -- multiple vulnerabilities (4033d826-87dd-11e4-9079-3c970e169bc2)
CERT reports : The Network Time Protocol NTP provides networked systems with a way to synchronize time for various services and applications. ntpd version 4.2.7 and previous versions allow attackers to overflow several buffers in a way that may allow malicious code to be executed. ntp-keygen prio...
MGASA-2014-0541 Updated ntp packages fix security vulnerabilities
Updated ntp packages fix security vulnerabilities: If no authentication key is defined in the ntp.conf file, a cryptographically-weak default key is generated CVE-2014-9293. ntp-keygen before 4.2.7p230 uses a non-cryptographic random number generator with a weak seed to generate symmetric keys...
DEBIAN-CVE-2014-9294
util/ntp-keygen.c in ntp-keygen in NTP before 4.2.7p230 uses a weak RNG seed, which makes it easier for remote attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms via a brute-force attack...

OracleVM 3.2 : bash (OVMSA-2014-0019)
The remote OracleVM system is missing necessary patches to address critical security updates : - Check for fishy environment Resolves: 1141644 - Fixed a bug that caused trap handlers to be executed recursively, corrupting internal data structures. Resolves: 964753 - Don't include backup files...
Design/Logic Flaw
The kernel in Apple iOS before 8 and Apple TV before 7 uses a predictable random number generator during the early portion of the boot process, which allows attackers to bypass certain kernel-hardening protection mechanisms by using a user-space process to observe data related to the random numbe...
CVE-2014-4422
CVE-2014-4422 concerns the Apple kernel hardening RNG used early in the boot process. The connected sources confirm that the issue allowed some RNG output to be inferable by user space, enabling bypass of kernel-hardening protections. A fix was applied by replacing the early-boot RNG with a crypt...

WPS Implementation Issue Exposes Wi-Fi Routers to Attack
A number of popular home and small office routers suffer from an implementation problem that could lead an experienced hacker down the road toward learning the devices’ eight-digit Wi-Fi Protected Setup WPS PINs in one guess. The attack, developed by Dominique Bongard, founder of 0xcite of...
Trio of Flaws Haunts OleumTech Wireless Monitoring System
Researchers have identified several remotely exploitable vulnerabilities in a wireless remote monitoring product from OleumTech that is used in energy, water and other critical infrastructure sectors. Two of the three flaws are related to the encryption implementation in the affected products,...
EFF Releases Open Wireless Router Firmware
The EFF is working on an open wireless router firmware that’s designed to be a secure and flexible alternative to the existing software that runs on home and small business routers, much of which is notoriously insecure. The Open Wireless Router project, which the organization announced at the HO...
LibreSSL PRNG Vulnerability Patched
The OpenBSD project late last night rushed out a patch for a vulnerability in the LibreSSL pseudo random number generator PRNG. The flaw was disclosed two days ago by the founder of secure backup company Opsmate, Andrew Ayer, who said the vulnerability was a “catastrophic failure of the PRNG.”...
