Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insufficient Entropy via the random_polynomial function. An attacker can exclude an exponential number of values for each of the shared bytes until sufficiently few values remain for brute forcing by exploiting the bias in polynomial coefficient generation. This is only exploitable if the same secret is distributed multiple times.
