http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-announce/2006q3/000229.html
Comment: This advisory references vulnerabilities in products which run on
platforms other than Red Hat. It is recommended that
administrators running GnuPG check for an updated version of the
software for their operating system.
From the GnuPG announcement (for the complete post, see the above
URLs):
"Fixed 2 more possible memory allocation attacks. They are similar
to the problem we fixed with 1.4.4. This bug can easily be be
exploted [sic] for a DoS; remote code execution is not entirely
impossible."
However, AusCERT is not aware of any public proof of concept code
or active exploitation of this vulnerability.

3. Problem description:
GnuPG is a utility for encrypting data and creating digital signatures.
An integer overflow flaw was found in GnuPG. An attacker could create a
carefully crafted message packet with a large length that could cause GnuPG
to crash or possibly overwrite memory when opened. (CVE-2006-3746)
All users of GnuPG are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
