CVE-2006-0455  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 gnupg to version 1.4.2.2-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gnupg package and not the gnupg package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

gpgv in GnuPG before 1.4.2.1, when using unattended signature verification, returns a 0 exit code in certain cases even when the detached signature file does not carry a signature, which could cause programs that use gpgv to assume that the signature verification has succeeded. Note: this also occurs when running the equivalent command "gpg --verify".
