The vulnerability of the mt_rand function in the PHP programming language allows attackers to predict the returned values.

The vulnerability of the mtrand function in the PHP programming language is related to errors in number processing. Exploiting this vulnerability can allow a remote attacker to predict the values that will be returned...

The vulnerability lies in the implementation of the `mt_rand()` and `time()` functions in the pearweb package’s PHP classes from the PEAR library. This allows an attacker to gain unauthorized access to protected information or execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerability in the implementation of the mtrand and time functions in the pearweb package’s PHP class library in the PEAR library is related to the use of an insufficiently secure MD5 encryption algorithm. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to...

PHP 32 bit weak random seed

The GENERATESEED macro in PHP 4.x before 4.4.8 and 5.x before 5.2.5, when running on 32-bit systems, performs a multiplication using values that can produce a zero seed in rare circumstances, which allows context-dependent attackers to predict subsequent values of the rand and mtrand functions an...
