CVE-2026-38968: Predictable Time Seeded Prng
A weak pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) is seeded with the predictable `time()` function and subsequently queried. This can lead to deterministic or colliding outputs, which may be exploited in contexts like session identifier generation. Use a cryptographically secure pseudo-random number generator (CSPRNG) such as `getrandom()`, `arc4random()`, or rea
