Tracker summary

CVE-2014-0016 unimportant priority: Debian including 1 source packages (stunnel4), 3 status rows across 3 suites (bookworm, bullseye, trixie): resolved 3.

Description:

stunnel before 5.00, when using fork threading, does not properly update the state of the OpenSSL pseudo-random number generator (PRNG), which causes subsequent children with the same process ID to use the same entropy pool and allows remote attackers to obtain private keys for EC (ECDSA) or DSA certificates.
