Detail
| A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - Ubuntu 13.10 - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS - Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Summary: GnuPG could be made to hang if it processed a specially crafted message. Software Description: - gnupg: GNU privacy guard - a free PGP replacement - gnupg2: GNU privacy guard - a free PGP replacement Details: Jean-René Reinhard, Olivier Levillain and Florian Maury discovered that GnuPG incorrectly handled certain OpenPGP messages. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially-crafted message, GnuPG could consume resources, resulting in a denial of service. Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS: Ubuntu 13.10: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
