  2. Vulnerabilities (CVE)
  3. CVE-2024-58036
Net::Dropbox::API 1.9 and earlier for Perl uses the rand() function as the default source of entropy, which is not cryptographically secure, for cryptographic functions. Specifically Net::Dropbox::API uses the Data::Random library which specifically states that it is "Useful mostly for test programs". Data::Random uses the rand() function.

Summary
  • (es) Net::Dropbox::API 1.9 y versiones anteriores para Perl utilizan la función rand() como fuente predeterminada de entropía, la cual no es criptográficamente segura para las funciones criptográficas. En concreto, Net::Dropbox::API utiliza la librería Data::Random, que indica específicamente que es útil principalmente para programas de prueba. Data::Random utiliza la función rand().
