DSA-2781-1 python-crypto -- PRNG not correctly reseeded in some situations

ID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:601129Date: (C)2013-10-21   (M)2022-10-10
Class: PATCHFamily: unix




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 processes, which might leak sensitive values like cryptographic keys.

Platform:
Debian 7.0
Debian 6.0
Product:
python-crypto
