From 3.7.0 until 3.13.0, an application that calls AutoSeeded_RNG::clear() and then calls randomize with an empty output buffer while the generator is unseeded can cause AutoSeeded_RNG to mark itself seeded without consulting the configured entropy source. On builds without BOTAN_HAS_SYSTEM_RNG, the fallback uses only a clock value and process ID, so a later non-empty request can produce output from predictable state. This issue is fixed in version 3.13.0.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-10-29T17:12:07.807+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-29T17:12:07.807+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"botan","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"randombit\",\n                    \"product\": \"botan\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \">= 3.7.0, < 3.13.0\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 4.0","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":7.3,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://github.com/randombit/botan/security/advisories/GHSA-95xx-xh9v-v9c4","https://github.com/randombit/botan/pull/5838","https://github.com/randombit/botan/commit/a7389222ace990604b6985add91ee06f55a80c0e"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-118765","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-118765","identifiers":["CVE-2026-118765"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[]}
