September 17, 2012
gnupg, gnupg2 vulnerability
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 11.10
- Ubuntu 11.04
- Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
Summary:
GnuPG could be tricked into downloading a different key when downloading
from a key server.
Software Description:
- gnupg: GNU privacy guard - a free PGP replacement
- gnupg2: GNU privacy guard - a free PGP replacement
Details:
It was discovered that GnuPG used a short ID when downloading keys from a
keyserver, even if a long ID was requested. An attacker could possibly use
this to return a different key with a duplicate short key id.
