The GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG or GPG) is a tool for encrypting data and creating digital signatures, compliant with OpenPGP and S/MIME standards.
The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: gnupg2 (2.2.20). (BZ#1663944)
Security Fix(es):
- GnuPG: interaction between the sks-keyserver code and GnuPG allows for a Certificate Spamming Attack which leads to persistent DoS (CVE-2019-13050)
