Package : gnupg
Vulnerability : programming error
Problem type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2006-0455

Tavis Ormandy noticed that gnupg, the GNU privacy guard - a free PGP
replacement, verifies external signatures of files successfully even
though they don't contain a signature at all.

For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.6-4woody4.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.4.1-1sarge1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your gnupg package.
