CVE-2015-9019
In libxslt 1.1.29 and earlier, the EXSLT math.random function was not initialized with a random seed during startup, which could cause usage of this function to produce predictable outputs.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.42%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
