**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** PyCrypto versions prior to 2.6 **Description** The issue concerns the generation of prime numbers when using an ElGamal scheme to create a key. This results in a reduced signature space or public key space, making it easier for attackers to perform brute force attacks to obtain the private key. **Recommendations** For versions prior to 2.6, update to version 2.6 or later to resolve the issue.
