CVE ID: | CVE-2007-4311 |
Description: | The xfer_secondary_pool function in drivers/char/random.c in the Linux kernel 2.4 before 2.4.35 performs reseed operations on only the first few bytes of a buffer, which might make it easier for attackers to predict the output of the random number generator, related to incorrect use of the sizeof operator. |
Test IDs: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.60437 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.60498 |
