CWE-337 PRNG中使用可预测种子

Predictable Seed in Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG)

结构: Simple

Abstraction: Variant

状态: Draft

被利用可能性: unkown

基本描述

A Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) is initialized from a predictable seed, such as the process ID or system time.

扩展描述

The use of predictable seeds significantly reduces the number of possible seeds that an attacker would need to test in order to predict which random numnbers will be generated by the PRNG.

常见的影响

可能的缓解方案

策略:

Use non-predictable inputs for seed generation.

MIT-2 ['Architecture and Design', 'Requirements']

策略: Libraries or Frameworks

Use products or modules that conform to FIPS 140-2 [REF-267] to avoid obvious entropy problems. Consult FIPS 140-2 Annex C ("Approved Random Number Generators").

MIT-50 Implementation

策略:

Use a PRNG that periodically re-seeds itself using input from high-quality sources, such as hardware devices with high entropy. However, do not re-seed too frequently, or else the entropy source might block.

示例代码

例

Both of these examples use a statistical PRNG seeded with the current value of the system clock to generate a random number:

bad Java

bad C

An attacker can easily predict the seed used by these PRNGs, and so also predict the stream of random numbers generated. Note these examples also exhibit CWE-338 (Use of Cryptographically Weak PRNG).
