Debian Security Advisory DSA 2781-1 (python-crypto - PRNG not correctly reseeded in some situations)

A cryptographic vulnerability was discovered in the pseudo random number generator in python-crypto. In some situations, a race condition could prevent the reseeding of the generator when multiple processes are forked from the same parent. This would lead it to generate identical output on all...

pycrypto -- PRNG reseed race condition

Dwayne Litzenberger reports: In PyCrypto before v2.6.1, the Crypto.Random pseudo-random number generator PRNG exhibits a race condition that may cause it to generate the same 'random' output in multiple processes that are forked from each other. Depending on the application, this could reveal...
