<p>
|
|
Evgeny Legerov discovered a vulnerability in GnuPG that when certain
|
|
packets are handled an integer overflow may occur.

|
<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
By sending a specially crafted email to a user running an affected
|
|
version of GnuPG, a remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary
|
|
code with the permissions of the user running GnuPG.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All GnuPG users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "=app-crypt/gnupg-1.4*"</code>
