The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'gnupg, gnupg2' package(s) announced via the DSA-2601-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
KB Sriram discovered that GnuPG, the GNU Privacy Guard did not sufficiently sanitise public keys on import, which could lead to memory and keyring corruption.

The problem affects both version 1, in the gnupg package, and version two, in the gnupg2 package.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.10-4+squeeze1 of gnupg and version 2.0.14-2+squeeze1 of gnupg2.

For the testing distribution (wheezy) and unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.12-7 of gnupg and version 2.0.19-2 of gnupg2.

We recommend that you upgrade your gnupg and/or gnupg2 packages.
