Detail

The pgpk command in PGP 5.x on Unix systems uses an insufficiently random data source for non-interactive key pair generation, which may produce predictable keys.

Id Description
1355 PGP Predictable Key Generation

PGP contains a flaw that may cause public and private keys to be generated without sufficient randomness potentially compromising the integrity and strength of the keys. The issue is due to a flaw in the "pgpk" program and it's reliance on /dev/random for entropy/randomness when creating new key pairs. If a user fails to use a long pass phrase and fails to input characters when prompted, the strength of the key pair may be significantly weakened to allow for cryptographic attack against the key pair.
