PT-2025-15064

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Web::API versions 2.8 and earlier Description The issue concerns the use of a non-cryptographically secure source of entropy for cryptographic functions. Specifically, Web::API uses the Data::Random library, which relies on the rand function...

CVE-2024-58036: Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG)

Net::Dropbox::API 1.9 and earlier for Perl uses the rand function as the default source of entropy, which is not cryptographically secure, for cryptographic functions. Specifically Net::Dropbox::API uses the Data::Random library which specifically states that it is "Useful mostly for test...

CVE-2024-52322: Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG)

WebService::Xero 0.11 and earlier for Perl uses the rand function as the default source of entropy, which is not cryptographically secure, for cryptographic functions. Specifically WebService::Xero uses the Data::Random library which specifically states that it is "Useful mostly for test programs...

Updated perl-Crypt-DSA package fixes security vulnerability

The Crypt::DSA aka Crypt-DSA module 1.17 and earlier for Perl, when /dev/random is absent, uses the Data::Random module, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof a signature, or determine the signing key of a signed message, via a brute-force attack CVE-2011-3599. This update removes t...

Fedora 19 : perl-Crypt-DSA-1.17-10.fc19 (2013-15786)

As taught by the '09 Debian PGP disaster relating to DSA, the randomness source is extremely important. On systems without /dev/random, Crypt::DSA falls back to using Data::Random. Data::Random uses rand, about which the perldoc says 'rand is not cryptographically secure. You should not rely on i...
