Trustix Secure Linux Security Advisory #2001-0009

Package name:      GnuPG
Severity:          Remote arbitrary code execution vulnerability
Date:              2001-06-01
Affected versions: TSL 1.01, 1.1, 1.2

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem description:
  From
  <URI:http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/bugtraq/2001-05/0281.html>:

  Hidden deep within its code is a format string vulnerability which
  can be  triggered simply by attempting to decrypt a file with a
  specially crafted  filename. This vulnerability can allow a
  malicious user to gain  unathorized access to the account which
  attempted the decryption.

Action:
  We recommend that all systems with this package installed are upgraded.


Location:
  All TSL updates are available from
  <URI:http://www.trustix.net/pub/Trustix/updates/>
  <URI:ftp://ftp.trustix.net/pub/Trustix/updates/>


Automatic updates:
  Users of the SWUP tool, can enjoy having updates automatically
  installed using 'swup --upgrade'.
  Note that kernel packages are not normally fit to be upgraded this way
  and therefore excluded in the default configuration.
