CVE-2019-11690: Denx U-Boot

Medium severity, CVSS 5.9. EPSS: 1.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

gen_rand_uuid in lib/uuid.c in Das U-Boot v2014.04 through v2019.04 lacks an srand call, which allows attackers to determine UUID values in scenarios where CONFIG_RANDOM_UUID is enabled, and Das U-Boot is relied upon for UUID values of a GUID Partition Table of a boot device.
