Description Hector Martin 2018-05-14 16:31:54 UTC 
This is apparently related to #641764 and #643490, but 1.9.9 is missing some fixes for the (now named, logo'd, FUDed and clickbaited) Efail class of vulnerabilities.

Word on Twitter from the Enigmail developers: https://twitter.com/robertjhansen/status/995991538403545090

Upstream bug (this is the one not in 1.9.9):
https://sourceforge.net/p/enigmail/bugs/721/

CVE for the general issue with OpenPGP-based software: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2017-17688

Reproducible: Always

@maintainers, are you ready to stabilize new version? I've been using 2.0.2 without any issues for a while already at least.

2.0.2 is good to go stable.
Comment 3 Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2018-05-14 16:58:59 UTC 
Better go with 2.0.3 instead, as it fixes some crashes:

Upstream has updated enigmail once again, see https://enigmail.net/index.php/en/download/changelog and https://sourceforge.net/p/enigmail/bugs/search/?q=status%3Afixed+%26%26+_fixed%3A2.0.4.

Therefore we are restarting stabilization with =x11-plugins/enigmail-2.0.4
