CVE-2008-1530

Publication date 27 March 2008

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

GnuPG (gpg) 1.4.8 and 2.0.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted duplicate keys that are imported from key servers, which triggers “memory corruption around deduplication of user IDs.”
