Category:	Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:221 (gnupg)
Summary:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:221 (gnupg)
Description:	The remote host is missing an update to gnupg announced via advisory MDKSA-2006:221. Buffer overflow in the ask_outfile_name function in openfile.c for GnuPG (gpg) 1.4 and 2.0, when running interactively, might allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via messages that cause the make_printable_string function to return a longer string than expected while constructing a prompt. Updated packages have been patched to correct this issue. Affected: 2006.0, 2007.0, Corporate 3.0, Corporate 4.0, Multi Network Firewall 2.0 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2006:221 Risk factor : High
