A salt doesn't need to be strong random bits, but I'm not sure that Mersenne Twister is a best candidate to generate salt. It would be nice to use ssl.RAND_pseudo_bytes() if available. Problem: implement random.choice() from a generator generating bytes => see issue #12754. |

I'm not sure that a salt must be cryptographic. Mersenne Twister should be enough to generate a salt. Anyway, ssl.RAND_pseudo_bytes() cannot be used currently and I don't have a patch, so I prefer to close this issue. |
