Bruinderink, Nadia Heninger, Tanja Lange, Christine van Vredendaal and
Yuval Yarom discovered that gnupg is prone to a local side-channel
attack allowing full key recovery for RSA-1024.
See https://eprint.iacr.org/2017/627 for details.
For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version
1.4.12-7+deb7u9.
We recommend that you upgrade your gnupg packages.
NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description
block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues.");
