FreeBSD : ElGamal sign+encrypt keys created by GnuPG can be compromised (81313647-2d03-11d8-9355-0020ed76ef5a)

Any ElGamal sign+encrypt keys created by GnuPG contain a cryptographic weakness that may allow someone to obtain the private key. These keys should be considered unusable and should be revoked. The following summary was written by Werner Koch, GnuPG author : Phong Nguyen identified a severe bug i...
