https://issues.rpath.com/browse/RPL-826
Description:
Previous versions of the gnupg package contain a weakness that may
enable an attacker to create a malformed message that causes gnupg
to crash or execute arbitrary code provided by the attacker. This
weakness exists only in interactive mode; other applications which
call gpg in batch mode are not susceptible.
