Had a look into this. The ROOT source never explicitly opens
/dev/random in read/write mode. Only read only.
However, it also uses a number of external library calls, like
std::rand(), and my best bet is one of these is doing it. As writing
to /dev/random is allowed, to update the entropy pool, I don’t think
this in itself is an issue.
So is it OK to add /dev/random to the allowed locations for the
sandbox ?
Yes, that would be fine.
So, should I submit an MR for this, or can you do it ? If you want me
to, where in base should I go looking for the allowed list ?
