[Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos:]
The above is certainly accurate, however, I think that such a
discussion or text, when reflected to a man-page is going to
cause problems. The audience of a man-page are not crypto people,
and seeing such text would create confusion rather than clarify
how these devices/apis should be used. The *if* part is not put
into a perspective, suggesting that such an *if* is possible.
However, if one clarifies, i.e., in that case, your TLS or SSH
connection is most likely broken as well, and not because of any
attack on /dev/urandom, then one can see that we are heading
towards a theoretical discussion.
My suggestion, on that particular text would be to remove it,
but make it explicit somewhere in the text that all the
assurances for the devices depend on the crypto primitives,
rather than describing risks that may arise on particular
usage patterns *if* primitives are broken.
