Re:How secure is Linux's random number generator? by welterde on Saturday July 13, 2013 @05:39PM (#6038873)
Meeting various standards for RNGs doesn't help though if the algorithm is properly backdoored. Like for instance Dual_EC_DRBG could be..

Also correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't this about using RdRand as entropy source to the linux /dev/random, which afaik is not injection-proof..

And I would consider /dev/random among the most critial of applications.
