The get_random_int function in drivers/char/random.c in the Linux kernel
before 2.6.30 produces insufficiently random numbers, which allows
attackers to predict the return value, and possibly defeat protection
mechanisms based on randomization, via vectors that leverage the function’s
tendency to β€œreturn the same value over and over again for long stretches
of time.”
