<p>The GNU Privacy Guard, GnuPG, is a free replacement for the PGP suite of
cryptographic software. The GPGSM utility in GnuPG is responsible for
processing X.509 certificates, signatures and encryption as well as
S/MIME messages.
</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>The GPGSM utility in GnuPG contains a use-after-free vulnerability that
may be exploited when importing a crafted X.509 certificate explicitly or
during the signature verification process.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>An unauthenticated remote attacker may execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the user running GnuPG by enticing them to import a crafted
certificate.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All GnuPG 2.x users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-crypt/gnupg-2.0.16-r1"
</code>
