CVE-2002-20002 (2025-01-02)

The Net::EasyTCP package before 0.15 for Perl always uses Perl's builtin rand(), which is not a strong random number generator, for cryptographic keys.

Changes for version 0.14

  • Implemented a do_one_loop() method to allow servers you write to do other things concurrently instead of the old way of being dedicated through the start() method.
  • Localized some variables to the server object. This prevented running multiple servers previously within the same program.
  • Added some more internal notes.
