| The implementation used [[cryptographic hash function|secure hashes]] rather than [[cipher]]s,{{clarify|date=February 2017}} to avoid [[export of cryptography|cryptography export restrictions]] that were in place when the generator was originally designed.
| |
| * The implementation was also designed with the assumption that any given hash or cipher might eventually be found to be weak, and so the design is durable in the face of any such weaknesses.
| |
| * Fast recovery from [[Entropy pool|pool compromise]] is not considered a requirement, because the requirements for pool compromise are sufficient for much easier and more direct attacks on unrelated parts of the operating system.
| |
| | |
| In Ts'o's implementation, the generator keeps an estimate of the number of [[bit]]s of noise in the [[entropy pool]].
| |
| * From this entropy pool random numbers are created.
| |
| * When read, the {{mono|/dev/random}} device will only return random bytes within the estimated number of bits of noise in the entropy pool. When the entropy pool is empty, reads from {{mono|/dev/random}} will [[Asynchronous I/O|block]] until additional environmental noise is gathered.<ref name="linux-man-page">{{man|4|random|Linux}}</ref> The intent is to serve as a [[cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator]], delivering output with entropy as large as possible.
| |
| * This is suggested by the authors for use in generating cryptographic keys for high-value or long-term protection.<ref name="linux-man-page" />
| |
| | |
| A counterpart to {{mono|/dev/random}} is {{mono|/dev/urandom}} ("unlimited"<ref>{{cite web | url=http://repo.or.cz/w/davej-history.git/blob/d0562c8dc:/drivers/char/random.c#l682

| |
| * This means that the call will not block, but the output may contain less entropy than the corresponding read from {{mono|/dev/random}}.
| |
| * While {{mono|/dev/urandom}} is still intended as a pseudorandom number generator suitable for most cryptographic purposes, the authors of the corresponding [[man page]] note that, theoretically, there may exist an as-yet-unpublished attack on the algorithm used by {{mono|/dev/urandom}}, and that users concerned about such an attack should use {{mono|/dev/random}} instead.<ref name="linux-man-page" /> However such an attack is unlikely to come into existence, because once the entropy pool is unpredictable it doesn't leak security by a reduced number of bits.<ref>{{cite AV media|url=https://media.ccc.de/v/32c3-7441-the_plain_simple_reality_of_entropy#video&t=1262|title=The plain simple reality of entropy|author=Filippo Valsorda|date=2015-12-29}}</ref>
| |
| | |
| It is also possible to write to {{mono|/dev/random}}.
| |
| * This allows any user to mix random data into the pool.
| |
| * Non-random data is harmless, because only a privileged user can issue the [[ioctl]] needed to increase the entropy estimate.{{Dubious|date=December 2020|reason=This isn't the reason that writing non-random data is harmless. 1.
| |
| * The non-random data mixes with the random data in a way that keeps only the randomness, like XOR? That would make it harmless? 2.
| |
| * The entropy estimate is not increased when you write to it, according to https://linux.die.net/man/4/urandom, but it DOES affect the output, so that isn't what makes it harmless. 3.
| |
| * Only privileged users can update the entropy estimate, which doesn't make it harmless?}} The current amount of entropy and the size of the Linux kernel entropy pool, both measured in bits, are available in {{mono|/proc/sys/kernel/random/}} and can be displayed by the command {{code|cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail}} and {{code|cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/poolsize}} respectively.

| |
| * Perhaps the most severe issue they report is with [[embedded system|embedded]] or [[Live CD]] systems, such as routers and [[diskless node|diskless clients]], for which the bootup state is predictable and the available supply of entropy from the environment may be limited.
| |
| * For a system with non-volatile memory, they recommend saving some state from the RNG at shutdown so that it can be included in the RNG state on the next reboot.
| |
| * In the case of a router for which network traffic represents the primary available source of entropy, they note that saving state across reboots "would require potential attackers to either eavesdrop on all network traffic" from when the router is first put into service, or obtain direct access to the router's internal state.
| |
| * This issue, they note, is particularly critical in the case of a wireless router whose network traffic can be captured from a distance, and which may be using the RNG to generate keys for data encryption.
| |
| | |
| The Linux kernel provides support for several [[hardware random number generator]]s, should they be installed.

| In January 2014, [[Daniel J.
| |
| * Bernstein]] published a critique<ref>{{cite web|url=http://blog.cr.yp.to/20140205-entropy.html|title=cr.yp.to: 2014.02.05: Entropy Attacks!|author=Daniel J.
| |
| * Bernstein|author-link=Daniel J.
| |
| * Bernstein|date=2014-02-05}}</ref> of how Linux mixes different sources of entropy. He outlines an attack in which one source of entropy capable of monitoring the other sources of entropy could modify its output to nullify the randomness of the other sources of entropy. Consider the function {{tmath|H(x,y,z)}} where ''H'' is a hash function and ''x'', ''y'', and ''z'' are sources of entropy with ''z'' being the output of a CPU based malicious HRNG Z:
| |
| #''Z'' generates a random value of ''r''.
| |
| #''Z'' computes {{tmath|H(x,y,r)}}.
| |
| #If the output of {{tmath|H(x,y,r)}} is equal to the desired value, output ''r'' as ''z''.
| |
| #Else, repeat starting at 1.
| |
| Bernstein estimated that an attacker would need to repeat {{tmath|H(x,y,r)}} 16 times to compromise DSA and ECDSA. This is possible because Linux reseeds H on an ongoing basis instead of using a single high quality seed.
| |
| | |
| In October 2016, with the release of [[Linux kernel]] version 4.8, the kernel's {{mono|/dev/urandom}} was switched over to a [[ChaCha20]]-based [[cryptographic pseudorandom number generator]] (CPRNG) implementation<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=818e607b57c94ade9824dad63a96c2ea6b21baf3 |title=kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git - Linux kernel source tree |date=2016-07-27 |publisher=kernel.org |access-date=2016-11-23}}</ref> by [[Theodore Ts'o]], based on [[Daniel J.
| |
| * Bernstein|Bernstein]]'s well-regarded [[stream cipher]] [[ChaCha20]].
| |
| | |
| In 2020, the Linux kernel version 5.6 {{mono|/dev/random}} only blocks when the CPRNG hasn't initialized.
| |
| * Once initialized, {{mono|/dev/random}} and {{mono|/dev/urandom}} behave the same.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-5.6-Random-Rework|title=/dev/random Is More Like /dev/urandom With Linux 5.6 - Phoronix|website=www.phoronix.com}}</ref>

| | |
| == BSD systems ==
| |
| The [[FreeBSD]] operating system provides a {{mono|/dev/urandom}} link to {{mono|/dev/random}}. Both block only until properly seeded. FreeBSD's PRNG ([[Fortuna (PRNG)|Fortuna]]) reseeds regularly, and does not attempt to estimate entropy. On a system with small amount of network and disk activity, reseeding is done after a fraction of a second.
| |
| | |
| Since [[OpenBSD]] 5.1 (May 1, 2012) {{mono|/dev/random}} and {{mono|/dev/arandom}} used an algorithm based on [[RC4]] but renamed to ARC4 because of intellectual property reasons.
| |
| * While random number generation here uses system entropy gathered in several ways, the ARC4 algorithm provides a fail-safe, ensuring that a rapid and high quality pseudo-random number stream is provided even when the pool is in a low entropy state.
| |
| * The system automatically uses hardware random number generators (such as those provided on some Intel PCI hubs) if they are available, through the [[OpenBSD Cryptographic Framework]].
| |
| * As of OpenBSD 5.5 (May 1, 2014), the {{code|arc4random()}} call used for OpenBSD's random devices no longer uses ARC4, but [[ChaCha20]] (''arc4random'' name might be reconsidered as ''A Replacement Call for Random'').<ref>{{man|3|arc4random|OpenBSD}}</ref><ref>{{cite web

| * The documented methods to generate cryptographically random bytes are [[CryptGenRandom]] and [[RtlGenRandom]].
| |
| * Windows [[PowerShell]] provides access to a cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator via the {{mono|Get-Random}} cmdlet.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Get-Random |author=Microsoft |work=learn.microsoft.com |date= |access-date=11 November 2022 |url= https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.utility/get-random?view=powershell-7.2 }}</ref>
