-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2025-8a7bd987fe 2025-04-08 01:26:30.498540+00:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : perl-Data-Entropy Product : Fedora 41 Version : 0.008 Release : 1.fc41 URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Data-Entropy Summary : Entropy (randomness) management Description : This module maintains a concept of a current selection of entropy source. Algorithms that require entropy, such as those in Data::Entropy::Algorithms, can use the source nominated by this module, avoiding the need for entropy source objects to be explicitly passed around. This is convenient because usually one entropy source will be used for an entire program run and so an explicit entropy source parameter would rarely vary. There is also a default entropy source, avoiding the need to explicitly configure a source at all. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Prior to version 0.008, the Perl module Data::Entropy relied on Perl's builtin rand function to choose an entropy source. Version 0.008 does away with this need. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Sun Mar 30 2025 Emmanuel Seyman <[email protected]> - 0.008-1 - Update to 0.008, with new maintainer (#2355612) * Sat Jan 18 2025 Fedora Release Engineering <[email protected]> - 0.007-27 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_42_Mass_Rebuild * Mon Aug 5 2024 Miroslav Suchý <[email protected]> - 0.007-26 - convert license to SPDX -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #2355612 - perl-Data-Entropy-0.008 is available https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2355612 [ 2 ] Bug #2355706 - CVE-2025-1860 perl-Data-Entropy: Data::Entropy for Perl uses insecure rand() function for cryptographic functions [epel-8] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2355706 [ 3 ] Bug #2355707 - CVE-2025-1860 perl-Data-Entropy: Data::Entropy for Perl uses insecure rand() function for cryptographic functions [epel-9] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2355707 [ 4 ] Bug #2355708 - CVE-2025-1860 perl-Data-Entropy: Data::Entropy for Perl uses insecure rand() function for cryptographic functions [fedora-40] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2355708 [ 5 ] Bug #2355709 - CVE-2025-1860 perl-Data-Entropy: Data::Entropy for Perl uses insecure rand() function for cryptographic functions [fedora-41] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2355709 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "dnf" update program.
