Pwgen · Password Generator · CVE-2013-4442
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Password Generator (aka Pwgen) versions prior to 2.07 **Description** The issue arises when /dev/urandom is unavailable, causing the software to use weak pseudo-generated numbers. This weakness makes it easier for attackers to guess the numbers, particularly in context-dependent attacks. **Recommendations** For versions prior to 2.07, update to version 2.07 or later to resolve the issue.
