has anyone done an analysis of the OpenSSL PRNG which would be available
for public? i've read the Random Number Generation chapter of Peter
Gutmann's PhD thesis (The Design and Verification of a Cryptographic
Security Architecture, http://www.cryptoapps.com/~peter/06_random.pdf)
which contains an analysis of the design of OpenSSL PRNG but has anyone
analysed the random numbers generated? does the PRNG contain mechanisms
for statistically analysing its output? have there been any plans for
including statistical randomness tests in the PRNG output? do these tests
like the Maurer's universal statistical test catch PRNG errors in
practice?
best regards,
