Milk Sad: Weak Entropy in libbitcoin (bc) seed generation
Last release 2019, master branch marked as non-functional. Doesn't seem to be very active. Their homepage https://libbitcoin.info/ looks polished, but no signs of recent life. This vulnerability seems unmentioned. Well, they claim it's not a vulnerability but a demo implementation that should not be used to store anything of value. But there is no prominent note about that and some users did exactly that.

Generating and Working With ScriptPubKeys in Bitcoin Transactions
As mentioned previously, ScriptPubKeys are scripts that embody the locking conditions of bitcoins in a Bitcoin transaction. They are a crucial element of a Bitcoin transaction that specifies the requirements that must be met before an unspent transaction output (UTXO) is used. The ScriptPubKey, combined with the Amount, creates an output of a Bitcoin transaction. Like every other script, ScriptPubKeys are made up of operators and data. During the encoding of a transaction, both data and the operands are represented in hexadecimal format. You can find the hex representation for all operands used in Bitcoin Scripts here.
