Please see http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/187352 for more information. Because the flaw occurs in a call to the gnupg internal function tty_printf, FormatGuard does not protect against this vulnerability. A new version of GnuPG, 1.0.6, has been released to fix this problem. All Immunix OS users are encouraged to upgrade to this latest version.
