libcrypt-dsa-perl: CVE-2011-3599

Severity: Low

EPSS: 1.96% · Oct 25, 2026

The Crypt::DSA (aka Crypt-DSA) module 1.17 and earlier for Perl, when /dev/random is absent, uses the Data::Random module, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof a signature, or determine the signing key of a signed message, via a brute-force attack.
