+ <blockquote cite="http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/178990">
+ <p>The Erlang/OTP ssh library implements a number of
+ cryptographic operations that depend on cryptographically
+ strong random numbers. Unfortunately the RNG used by the
+ library is not cryptographically strong, and is further
+ weakened by the use of predictable seed material. The RNG
+ (Wichman-Hill) is not mixed with an entropy source.</p>
