Hi,

As discussed in oss-security[1], libapache-sessionx-perl uses a poor
source of entropy in Apache::Session::Generate::MD5. The critical part
is moving away from rand (e.g. to using urandom), but it would also be
a good time to update the way the id is generated.

The details are in the oss-sec thread.
