Descriptions

parse-packet.c in GnuPG (gpg) 1.4.3 and 1.9.20, and earlier versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (gpg crash) and possibly overwrite memory via a message packet with a large length (long user ID string), which could lead to an integer overflow, as demonstrated using the --no-armor option.

parse-packet.c en GnuPG (gpg) v1.4.3, v1.9.20 y versiones anteriores, permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (caída de gpg) y posiblemente sobrescribir la memoria a través de un paquete de mensajes de gran longitud (con un ID de usuario demasiado largo), lo cual podría llevar a un desbordamiento de enteros, tal y como se demuestra con la opción '-no-armor'.
