Description Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2020-09-03 19:26:25 UTC 
Description:
“GnuPG 2.2.21 and 2.2.22 (and Gpg4win 3.1.12) has an array overflow, leading to a crash or possibly unspecified other impact, when a victim imports an attacker's OpenPGP key, and this key has AEAD preferences. The overflow is caused by a g10/key-check.c error. NOTE: GnuPG 2.3.x is unaffected. GnuPG 2.2.23 is a fixed version.”
Comment 1 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2020-09-03 19:28:25 UTC 
Needs cleanup.

“ If GnuPG version 2.2.21 or 2.2.22 is in use please update ASAP to
version 2.2.23.

If you are using an older version or a beta of version 2.3 no immediate
action is required.”
