The remote host is missing an update for the Huawei EulerOS 'libgcrypt' package(s) announced via the EulerOS-SA-2021-2935 advisory. Libgcrypt before 1.8.8 and 1.9.x before 1.9.3 mishandles ElGamal encryption because it lacks exponent blinding to address a side-channel attack against mpi_powm, and the window size is not chosen appropriately. This, for example, affects use of ElGamal in OpenPGP.(CVE-2021-33560
