FKIE_CVE-2025-1828

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-03-11 00:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 08:39
Severity
8.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
Crypt::Random Perl package 1.05 through 1.55 may use rand() function, which is not cryptographically strong, for cryptographic functions. If the Provider is not specified and /dev/urandom or an Entropy Gathering Daemon (egd) service is not available Crypt::Random will default to use the insecure Crypt::Random::rand provider. In particular, Windows versions of perl will encounter this issue by default.
