CVE-2026-74874 openssl_encrypt before 1.4.0 Weak PRNG Steganography Pixel Selection

opensslencrypt versions before 1.4.0 use Python's non-cryptographic random module for steganographic pixel selection in the generatepseudorandomsequence function. Attackers who know the password can recover the Mersenne Twister state from approximately 624 outputs and predict pixel locations...
