The Linux CSPRNG Is Now Good!

Oceans of ink and hours on stage have been spent to convince the world that the best random number generator is /dev/urandom, the kernel one. And it is, and its always been. However, an uncomfortable truth was that the Linux CSPRNG really could have been better than it was. Userspace CSPRNGs...

Updated gcc packages fix security vulnerability

It was discovered that the std::randomdevice class in libstdc++ would not properly detect short reads and could return predictable values if applications used it to obtain randomness from a blocking source such as /dev/random. CVE-2015-5276...

Scientific Linux Security Update : kernel on SL7.x x86_64 (20150512)

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's Intel AES-NI instructions optimized version of the RFC4106 GCM mode decryption functionality handled fragmented packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash, or potentially escalate their privileges on, a system over a...

/Dev/Random PRNG in Linux Questioned

The sanctity of the dev/random random number generator used in the Linux kernel has been a hot-button issue for more than a month. A petition posted to change.org in September to remove RdRand from dev/random, for example, was met with fury from Linus Torvalds who called the developer who posted ...

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...
