Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Crypt::Random::Source versions prior to 0.13
Description
The issue concerns the Crypt::Random::Source package for Perl, which has a fallback to the built-in
rand() function. This function is not a secure source of random bits, potentially leading to security issues.Recommendations
For versions prior to 0.13, update to version 0.13 or later to ensure a secure source of random bits. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of the built-in
rand() function until the issue is resolved.Fix
