#2023 Randomizing IVParameterSpec.
Closed: migrated by dmoluguw. Opened by edewata.

There are various places where IVParameterSpec is created with constant byte array:

byte iv[] = { 0x1, 0x1, 0x1, 0x1, 0x1, 0x1, 0x1, 0x1 };
IVParameterSpec param = new IVParameterSpec(iv);

The byte array should be initialized with random numbers with a code similar to this:

SecureRandom random = SecureRandom.getInstance("pkcs11prng", "Mozilla-JSS");
byte[] iv = new byte[8];
random.nextBytes(iv);
IVParameterSpec param = new IVParameterSpec(iv);
