gnupg integer overflow

Text taken from MITRE:

parse-packet.c in GnuPG (gpg) 1.4.3 and 1.9.20 allows remote attackers
to cause a denial of service (gpg crash) and possibly overwrite memory
via a message packet with a large length, which could lead to an
integer overflow, as demonstrated using the --no-armor option.


This issue also affects FC4

Comment 1 Rex Dieter 2006-06-22 15:28:06 UTC
Thanks.

Next gnupg2 build will omit the gpg2 binary, because
* has security issue (CVE-2006-3082)... duh.
* as of the latest version, 1.9.21, it doesn't build
* upstream devs say "You shall not build the gpg part.  There is a reason why it
is not enabled by default"
