Do we know which wallets are/were effected?
at the moment, not really. but some fingers have pointed to trustwallet and bitpay. Trustwallet had a similar entropy exploit recently, and there was a recent apparent mass exploit that was reported on reddit not to long ago that some people think is related to this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/158nyuo/mass_hacking_of_over_1000_bitcoin_accounts/
libbitcoin was referenced in the mastering bitcoin book, so the concern seems to be mostly for people who used that library.
most people are not affected by this vulnerability.
Bitcoin core is not affected by this at all.
