Hardcoded-salt
Hardcoded salt
Cryptographic operations were identified that leverage a hardcoded salt/nonce. A salt does not need to remain secret, but should be random, generated from cryptographically secure sources of entropy, such as an CSPRNG. On iOS/macOS platforms, secure random data can be obtained via the SecCopyRandomBytes API available from RandomizationServices.
