Description

`KeyID::generatePrivateKey()` relies on `random_buffer()`, which uses `tinyMT32` as its PRNG. The PRNG is initialized only once using a 32-bit seed derived from `micros()`.
This is *not a cryptographically secure RNG,* and the 32-bit timer seed makes the generated private keys predictable and brute-forceable. All keys produced by the current implementation are vulnerable. A hardware CSPRNG or proper DRBG must be used instead.
