Crypt::SaltedHash versions through 0.09 for Perl generate insecure random values for salts
Crypt::SaltedHash versions through 0.09 for Perl generate insecure random values for salts.
These versions use the built-in rand function, which is predictable and unsuitable for cryptography.
Use of Cryptographically Weak Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) The product uses a Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) in a security context, but the PRNG's algorithm is not cryptographically strong.
