[sr-dev] [kamailio/kamailio] Kamailio 5.2.3 on Buster - Segmentation fault in libcrypto.so.1.1 (#2077)

[Henning Westerholt]

Good work Daniel, I hope that this OpenSSL issues stops now soon..
One suggestion about the random number generator - I think the core/fastrand/ one has a better quality than the one provided from glibc (kam_rand, which points to rand). If this fix is confirmed, I would suggest to use this one for now.

I looked already quite a bit into this random number generator topic. Most servers and also OS use the "Fortuna" PRNG. I was thinking of using fastrand for all "normal" random numbers (to replace the one from glibc) and then using fortuna for "secure" random numbers. I planned to work on this when 5.3. has been released.
