Detail
| Tavis Ormandy noticed that gnupg, the GNU privacy guard - a free PGP replacement, verifies external signatures of files successfully even though they don't contain a signature at all. For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 1.0.6-4woody4. For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.1-1sarge1. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your gnupg package. |

| Title: | gpgv in GnuPG before 1.4.2.1, when using unattended signature verification, returns a 0 exit code in certain cases even when the detached signature file does not carry a signature, which could cause programs that use gpgv to assume that the signature verification has succeeded. Note: this also occurs when running the equivalent command "gpg --verify". | ||
