Detail
| Problem Description: Updated GnuPG packages that fix a security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, s390x, x86_64 3. Problem description: GnuPG is a utility for encrypting data and creating digital signatures. Gerardo Richarte discovered that a number of applications that make use of GnuPG are prone to a vulnerability involving incorrect verification of signatures and encryption. An attacker could add arbitrary content to a signed message in such a way that a receiver of the message would not be able to distinguish between the properly signed parts of a message and the forged, unsigned, parts. (CVE-2007-1263) Whilst this is not a vulnerability in GnuPG itself, the GnuPG team have produced a patch to protect against messages with multiple plaintext packets. Users should update to these erratum packages which contain the backported patch for this issue. Red Hat would like to thank Core Security Technologies for reporting this issue. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_58_10188 5.
