Researchers found vulnerabilities in OpenSSL random number generator
The researchers reported that multiple vulnerabilities of the OpenSSL random number generator were discovered. OpenSSL open-source encryption library is widely used by Internet companies all over the world. However, it has been exposed to many serious vulnerabilities and has given birth to multiple new open-source encryption library projects, this includes Google's BoringSSL and OpenBSD's LibreSSL. Researchers found that the low-entropy OpenSSL random number generator may leak the low-entropy secret in the output. BoringSSL and LibreSSL random number generators use completely different and safer systems without these vulnerabilities.
