Title:	Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-1231-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'gnupg' package(s) announced via the DSA-1231-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'gnupg' package(s) announced via the DSA-1231-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the GNU privacy guard, a free PGP replacement, which may lead to the execution of arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2006-6169 Werner Koch discovered that a buffer overflow in a sanitising function may lead to execution of arbitrary code when running gnupg interactively. CVE-2006-6235 Tavis Ormandy discovered that parsing a carefully crafted OpenPGP packet may lead to the execution of arbitrary code, as a function pointer of an internal structure may be controlled through the decryption routines. For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.1-1.sarge6. For the upcoming stable distribution (etch) these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.6-1. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 1.4.6-1. We recommend that you upgrade your gnupg packages. Affected Software/OS: 'gnupg' package(s) on Debian 3.1. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 10.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
