AZL-43702 CVE-2023-31147 affecting package python-pycares 3.1.1-3

c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. When /dev/urandom or RtlGenRandom are unavailable, c-ares uses rand to generate random numbers used for DNS query ids. This is not a CSPRNG, and it is also not seeded by srand so will generate predictable output. Input from the random number generator i...

SSL/TLS: "Invariance Weakness" vulnerability in RC4 stream cipher

The RC4 algorithm, as used in the TLS protocol and SSL protocol, does not properly combine state data with key data during the initialization phase, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct plaintext-recovery attacks against the initial bytes of a stream by sniffing network traffic...
