From: brett at hutley.net (Brett Hutley) Subject: Attacks based on predictable process IDs?? Folks, does anyone know why predictable process IDs are considered harmful? I can see that there could be the possibility of a compromise if your cryptographic PRNGs are seeded using a process ID. Does anyone know of any other types of attacks?
