It is intended to be used for generating values that should remain private. If using the default RAND_METHOD, this function uses a separate "private" PRNG instance so that a compromise of the "public" PRNG instance will not affect the secrecy of these private values, as described in <a href="../man7/RAND.html">RAND(7)</a> and <a href="../man7/RAND_DRBG.html">RAND_DRBG(7)</a>.</p> <h1 id="NOTES">NOTES</h1> <p>By default, the OpenSSL CSPRNG supports a security level of 256 bits, provided it was able to seed itself from a trusted entropy source. On all major platforms supported by OpenSSL (including the Unix-like platforms and Windows), OpenSSL is configured to automatically seed the CSPRNG on first use using the operating systems's random generator.</p> <p>If the entropy source fails or is not available, the CSPRNG will enter an error state and refuse to generate random bytes. For that reason, it is important to always check the error return value of RAND_bytes() and RAND_priv_bytes() and not take randomness for granted.</p> <p>On other platforms, there might not be a trusted entropy source available or OpenSSL might have been explicitly configured to use different entropy sources. If you are in doubt about the quality of the entropy source, don't hesitate to ask your operating system vendor or post a question on GitHub or the openssl-users mailing list.</p> <h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1> <p>RAND_bytes() and RAND_priv_bytes() return 1 on success, -1 if not supported by the current RAND method, or 0 on other failure. The error code can be obtained by <a href="../man3/ERR_get_error.html">ERR_get_error(3)</a>.</p> <h1 id="SEE-ALSO">SEE ALSO</h1> <p><a href="../man3/RAND_add.html">RAND_add(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/RAND_bytes.html">RAND_bytes(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/RAND_priv_bytes.html">RAND_priv_bytes(3)</a>, <a href="../man3/ERR_get_error.html">ERR_get_error(3)</a>, <a href="../man7/RAND.html">RAND(7)</a>, <a href="../man7/RAND_DRBG.html">RAND_DRBG(7)</a></p> <h1 id="HISTORY">HISTORY</h1> <ul> <li><p>RAND_pseudo_bytes() was deprecated in OpenSSL 1.1.0; use RAND_bytes() instead.</p> </li> <li><p>The RAND_priv_bytes() function was added in OpenSSL 1.1.1.</p> </li> </ul> <h1 id="COPYRIGHT">COPYRIGHT</h1> <p>Copyright 2000-2020 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
