The Simple JWT Login WordPress plugin before 3.3.0 can be used to create new WordPress user accounts with a randomly generated password. The password is generated using the str_shuffle PHP function that "does not generate cryptographically secure values, and should not be used for cryptographic purposes" according to PHP's documentation.
