OpenPGP is the standard that defines the format of digital signatures supported by GnuPG. OpenPGP signatures consist of multiple sections, in a strictly defined order. Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Security Audit Team discovered that certain illegal signature formats could allow signed data to be modified without detection. GnuPG has previously attempted to be lenient when processing malformed or legacy signature formats, but this has now been found to be insecure.
Impact :
A remote attacker may be able to construct or modify a digitally-signed message, potentially allowing them to bypass authentication systems, or impersonate another user.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time.
