034 – Insecure generation of random numbers
Description
The system uses insecure functions, insufficient ranges or low-entropy components to generate random numbers. This could allow an attacker to guess the generation sequence after a short time or predict results using probabilistic methods.
Impact
Predict the sequence of random numbers to create new attack vectors.
Recommendation
Use the most secure mechanisms offered by language to generate random numbers.
Threat
Authenticated attacker from the Internet.
