Markus Theil created a merge request: https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/-/merge_requests/2051 Project:Branches: thillux/gnutls:mtheil/clear-rnd-state to gnutls/gnutls:master Author: Markus Theil <!-- Add a description of the new feature/bug fix. Reference any relevant bugs. --> * rnd: always clear internal RNG state and confidential temporary data Internal RNG state should not be left in memory after deallocating the RNG or exiting a process using GnuTLS. Fix this for the ChaCha20 based RNG implementation. The FIPS RNG impl. already does this, due to FIPS requirements.
