Crypt::SaltedHash versions through 0.09 for Perl generate insecure random values for salts.
CRITICAL 9.1EPSS 0.40%
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.40%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Crypt::SaltedHash versions through 0.09 for Perl generate insecure random values for salts. These versions use the built-in rand function, which is predictable and unsuitable for cryptography.
