OpenSSL shouldn't be managing its own PRNG; it should be asking the OS. (In a VM the OS should ask the hypervisor.) @CodesInChaos

Intel says that RDRAND is meant to "feed entropy directly to the register space of the running application". Huge design mistake.

@hashbreaker I don't think so. The OS can seed /dev/(u)random with it, and libraries like OpenSSL can seed their PRNG directly.
