What are they exploiting!? How can seed words be compromised? Where can I find an explanation of this?

If you use a Coldcard, review these findings from our Engineering and Security teams to see whether you may be affected. https://engineering.block.xyz/blog/predictable-rng-fallback-and-32-bit-reseed-in-coldcard-firmware

What I’m trying to figure out though is can I be sure seeds generated in Sparrow or Blue Wallet are safe? How can we trust any software generated seeds? Is it that these other software wallet programs don’t use or didn’t fudge that RNG? This programming stuff is way over my head.
