Fedora Test Update Notification
FEDORA-2006-757
2006-06-26
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Product     : Fedora Core 4
Name        : gnupg
Version     : 1.4.4
Release     : 1
Summary     : A GNU utility for secure communication and data storage.
Description :
GnuPG (GNU Privacy Guard) is a GNU utility for encrypting data and
creating digital signatures. GnuPG has advanced key management
capabilities and is compliant with the proposed OpenPGP Internet
standard described in RFC2440. Since GnuPG doesn't use any patented
algorithm, it is not compatible with any version of PGP2 (PGP2.x uses
only IDEA for symmetric-key encryption, which is patented worldwide).

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update upgrades to upstream version 1.4.4, which places
a limit on the size of user ID packets, closing a possible
integer overflow (CVE-2006-3082).

Barring newly-discovered bugs in this update, it will be
moved from Testing to Final on or about 28 June.
