…indows CryptGenRandom takes a DWORD (u32) for the length so it only supports writing u32::MAX bytes at a time. Casting the length from a usize caused truncation meaning the whole buffer was not always filled.

it is a security bug, but note that what really matters is the external crate, not this one. rust-random/rand#99 |

CryptGenRandom takes a DWORD (u32) for the length so it only supports writing u32::MAX bytes at a time. Casting the length from a usize caused truncation meaning the whole buffer was not always filled. cc #31841 This is the same as rust-random/rand#99. I think it's a good idea to keep the implementations in sync. r? @alexcrichton
