CVE-2013-5180

Severity CVSS v4.0:
Pending analysis
Type:
CWE-310 Cryptographic Issues
Publication date:

Last modified:

Description

The srandomdev function in Libc in Apple Mac OS X before 10.9, when the kernel random-number generator is unavailable, produces predictable values instead of the intended random values, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms by leveraging knowledge of these values, related to a compiler-optimization issue.
