Category:	Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:	Ubuntu USN-432-1 (gnupg)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to gnupg announced via advisory USN-432-1. A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases: Ubuntu 5.10 Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Ubuntu 6.10 This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu. Details follow: Gerardo Richarte from Core Security Technologies discovered that when gnupg is used without --status-fd, there is no way to distinguish initial unsigned messages from a following signed message. An attacker could inject an unsigned message, which could fool the user into thinking the message was entirely signed by the original sender. Solution: The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 5.10: gnupg 1.4.1-1ubuntu1.7 Ubuntu 6.06 LTS: gnupg 1.4.2.2-1ubuntu2.5 Ubuntu 6.10: gnupg 1.4.3-2ubuntu3.3 In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=USN-432-1 Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 5.0
