Debian Security Advisory

DSA-993-2 gnupg -- programming error

Date Reported:

10 Mar 2006

Affected Packages:

gnupg

Vulnerable:

Yes

Security database references:

In Mitre's CVE dictionary: CVE-2006-0049.

More information:

Tavis Ormandy noticed that gnupg, the GNU privacy guard - a free PGP replacement, can be tricked to emit a "good signature" status message when a valid signature is included which does not belong to the data packet. This update basically adds fixed packages for woody whose version turned out to be vulnerable as well.

For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 1.0.6-4woody5.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.1-1.sarge3.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.2.2-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your gnupg package.

Fixed in:

Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 (woody)
