[openssl-dev] [openssl.org #4545] Crash in crypto/rand/md_rand.c

[Mick Saxton via RT]

Hi Rich

Sorry for delay in responding – it takes longer to say that an intermittent problem doesn’t exist than to see it happen once.

I have tested against latest master (15 June) and the v1.1-pre5 – so far both are looking good.

As a control, I went back and retested with v1.0.2h on the same hardware and it exhibited the problem within 3-5 passes of my tests.
(each pass is approx. 110K connections ).

The later software has not exhibited this fault after 50 passes.
Hope this helps.

Thanks Mick

Can you test against a recent master, it has some rand bugfixes that might
address this.
