Too Close for Comfort
A flawed key generator picked two primes that are suspiciously close together. This is scriptable in a few lines.
An RSA key was generated by a library with a bug: instead of picking two independent random primes, it picked one prime and then searched forward for the very next prime after it. The two primes end up close together — far closer than genuine randomness would ever produce.
You'll want to write a short script for this one (Python with a big-integer square root, or any language with arbitrary-precision integers).
