Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** Data::Entropy versions before 0.010 for Perl read remote entropy sources over plain HTTP.<br />
<br />
The Data::Entropy::RawSource::RandomOrg and Data::Entropy::RawSource::RandomnumbersInfo remote sources are accessed over plain HTTP.<br />
<br />
The Data::Entropy::RawSource::RandomOrg integrity check trivially matches any non-empty byte string.<br />
<br />
Any on-path attacker, such as open WiFi, a compromised ISP, captive portal, or a hostile egress proxy substitutes the response and thereby chooses the bytes returned by rand_bits and rand_int for every application that selected one of these sources via with_entropy_source. The _checkbuf method response is equally attacker-controlled, so the retry/sleep behaviour is steerable too.
