MGASA-2013-0319 Updated python-pycrypto packages fix CVE-2013-1445

Updated python-pycrypto package fixes security vulnerability: 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...

Design/Logic Flaw

The srandomdev function in Libc in Apple Mac OS X before 10.9, when the kernel random-number generator is unavailable, produces predictable values instead of the intended random values, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms by leveragi...

CVE-2013-5173

The random-number generator in the kernel in Apple Mac OS X before 10.9 provides lengthy exclusive access for processing of large requests, which allows local users to cause a denial of service temporary generator outage via an application that requires many random numbers...

CVE-2013-5180

The srandomdev function in Libc in Apple Mac OS X before 10.9, when the kernel random-number generator is unavailable, produces predictable values instead of the intended random values, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms by leveragi...

CVE-2013-5180

The CVE-2013-5180 entry concerns the srandomdev function in Libc on Apple Mac OS X prior to 10.9. When the kernel random-number generator is unavailable, srandomdev produces predictable values instead of true randomness, which can help context-dependent attackers defeat cryptographic protections....

CVE-2013-5173

CVE-2013-5173: The kernel random-number generator in Apple Mac OS X before 10.9 allows local users to cause a denial of service (partial availability) by issuing requests for many random numbers. Affected: Mac OS X prior to 10.9. No remediation details are provided in the supplied documents.

Debian 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...
