+ <p>The GNU Privacy Guard, GnuPG, is a free replacement for the PGP suite of

+ <description>
+ <p>The GPGSM utility in GnuPG contains a use-after-free vulnerability that
+ may be exploited when importing a crafted X.509 certificate explicitly or
+ during the signature verification process.

+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>An unauthenticated remote attacker may execute arbitrary code with the
