Miguel Brito <[email protected]> added the comment:
The problem is that random seed will do
```
if isinstance(a, str):
a = a.encode()
a += _sha512(a).digest()
a = int.from_bytes(a, 'big')
```
and that will modify the bytearray in place.
>>> a = bytearray("1234", "utf-8")
>>> a += b"digest"
>>> a
bytearray(b'1234digest')
IMHO, seed shouldn't modify the input. Since str, and bytes are immutable that
will only happen when passing a bytearray which is not consistent.
