--- Comment #1 from Jaikiran Pai <jaiki...@apache.org> ---
> **Vulnerability Description**:

> In file ant/src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/util/FileUtils.java, use 
> java.util.Random instead of java.security.SecureRandom at Line 80.

> **Security Impact**:

> Java.util.Random is not cryptographically strong and may expose sensitive 
> information to certain types of attacks when used in a security context.

Line 79 of that FileUtils class has a comment which states:

> //get some non-crypto-grade randomness from various places.

So this Random instance isn't being used in any cryptographic context (I
checked the code not just the comment to be sure).
