Summary

random_compat versions prior to 2.0 are affected by a security vulnerability related to the insecure usage of Cryptographically Secure Pseudo-Random Number Generators (CSPRNG). The affected versions use openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(), which may result in insufficient entropy and compromise the security of generated random numbers.
