Subject: bug#22202: 24.5; SECURITY ISSUE -- Emacs Server vulnerable to random number generator attack on Windows systems
Date: Sun, 17 Jan 2016 17:42:44 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <569C4314.3090101@cs.ucla.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <569BF8F7.3090904@cs.ucla.edu>
Andreas Schwab discovered a problem with my patch in that GnuTLS wasn't
initialized, and reverted the GnuTLS part of it. As I understand it, newer
versions of GnuTLS initialize themselves when they are loaded and so do not run
into the issue; I tested with GnuTLS 3.3.15, which I suppose is new enough. I
attempted to fix this problem in the followup commit
130d512045aa376333b664d58c501b3884187592.
Andreas's commit also changed some unrelated style issues, which I reverted;
that is merely a longrunning stylistic disagreement, and right now is not a good
time to be changing style in code unrelated to fixes.
