CVE-2006-3419

UnknownEPSS 1.63%

Last modified

CVE-2006-3419 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Tor before 0.1.1.20 uses OpenSSL pseudo-random bytes (RAND_pseudo_bytes) instead of cryptographically strong RAND_bytes, and seeds the entropy value at start-up with 160-bit chunks without reseeding, which makes it easier for attackers to conduct brute force guessing attacks.. EPSS estimates a 1.63% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
