Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to usage of bad random number generator for nonces and port randomization after refactoring. A remote attacker can send 50 unauthenticated allocations requests and completely reconstruct the current state of the random number generator, leading to spoofing. authentication bypass and denial of service.
