A vulnerability has been discovered and corrected in gnupg and in libgcrypt :
Yarom and Falkner discovered that RSA secret keys in applications using GnuPG 1.x, and using the libgcrypt library, could be leaked via a side channel attack, where a malicious local user could obtain private key information from another user on the system (CVE-2013-4242).
The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
