Good point. As I see it, the problem is not in the random source itself but in the values. There are a couple of P11PBECipher::engineInit paths in which P11PBECipher initialization succeeds but the pbes2Params does not have the salt, iCount and ivSpec in use. These paths are those in which the P11 key was already derived (it's a P11PBEKey): we check consistency but record nothing for future P11PBECipher::engineGetParameters calls. I think that we can get the right values from the P11PBEKey and PBEParameterSpec. Notice that if the ivSpec is not passed, it's value could be randomly generated in the underlying Cipher. @franferrax what do you think?
