From wk at gnupg.org Mon Jan 11 20:44:57 2021 From: wk at gnupg.org (Werner Koch) Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2021 20:44:57 +0100 Subject: [Announce] GnuPG 2.2.27 released Message-ID: <874kjnjm12.fsf@wheatstone.g10code.de> Hello! We are pleased to announce the availability of a new GnuPG release: version 2.2.27. This is a maintenance release fixing two recently introduced bugs. What is GnuPG ============= The GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG, GPG) is a complete and free implementation of the OpenPGP and S/MIME standards. GnuPG allows to encrypt and sign data and communication, features a versatile key management system as well as access modules for public key directories. GnuPG itself is a command line tool with features for easy integration with other applications. The separate library GPGME provides a uniform API to use the GnuPG engine by software written in common programming languages. A wealth of frontend applications and libraries making use of GnuPG are available. As an universal crypto engine GnuPG provides support for S/MIME and Secure Shell in addition to OpenPGP. GnuPG is Free Software (meaning that it respects your freedom). It can be freely used, modified and distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License. Noteworthy changes in version 2.2.27 (2021-01-11) ------------------------------------------------- * gpg: Fix regression in 2.2.24 for gnupg_remove function under Windows. [#5230] * gpgconf: Fix case with neither local nor global gpg.conf. [9f37d3e6f3] * gpgconf: Fix description of two new options. [#5221] * Build Windows installer without timestamps. Note that the Authenticode signatures still carry a timestamp. Release-info: https://dev.gnupg.org/T5234 Getting the Software ==================== Please follow the instructions found at or read on: GnuPG 2.2.27 may be downloaded from one of the GnuPG mirror sites or direct from its primary FTP server. The list of mirrors can be found at . Note that GnuPG is not available at ftp.gnu.org. The GnuPG source code compressed using BZIP2 and its OpenPGP signature are available here: https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-2.2.27.tar.bz2 (7023k) https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-2.2.27.tar.bz2.sig An installer for Windows without any graphical frontend except for a very minimal Pinentry tool is available here: https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32-2.2.27_20210111.exe (4252k) https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32-2.2.27_20210111.exe.sig The source used to build the Windows installer can be found in the same directory with a ".tar.xz" suffix. New versions of the GnuPG VS-Desktop(tm) and Gpg4win featuring this version of GnuPG will be released shortly. Checking the Integrity ====================== In order to check that the version of GnuPG which you are going to install is an original and unmodified one, you can do it in one of the following ways: * If you already have a version of GnuPG installed, you can simply verify the supplied signature. For example to verify the signature of the file gnupg-2.2.27.tar.bz2 you would use this command: gpg --verify gnupg-2.2.27.tar.bz2.sig gnupg-2.2.27.tar.bz2 This checks whether the signature file matches the source file. You should see a message indicating that the signature is good and made by one or more of the release signing keys. Make sure that this is a valid key, either by matching the shown fingerprint against a trustworthy list of valid release signing keys or by checking that the key has been signed by trustworthy other keys. See the end of this mail for information on the signing keys. * If you are not able to use an existing version of GnuPG, you have to verify the SHA-1 checksum. On Unix systems the command to do this is either "sha1sum" or "shasum". Assuming you downloaded the file gnupg-2.2.27.tar.bz2, you run the command like this: sha1sum gnupg-2.2.27.tar.bz2 and check that the output matches the next line: d928d4bd0808ffb8fe20d1161501401d5d389458 gnupg-2.2.27.tar.bz2 53aaa951be77b9f59fe0981291962be3e5a21314 gnupg-w32-2.2.27_20210111.tar.xz 9f2ff2ce36b6537f895ab3306527f105ff95df8d gnupg-w32-2.2.27_20210111.exe Internationalization ==================== This version of GnuPG has support for 26 languages with Chinese (traditional and simplified), Czech, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, Polish, Russian, and Ukrainian being almost completely translated. Documentation and Support ========================= If you used GnuPG in the past you should read the description of changes and new features at doc/whats-new-in-2.1.txt or online at https://gnupg.org/faq/whats-new-in-2.1.html The file gnupg.info has the complete reference manual of the system. Separate man pages are included as well but they miss some of the details available only in thee manual. The manual is also available online at https://gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/ or can be downloaded as PDF at https://gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg.pdf . You may also want to search the GnuPG mailing list archives or ask on the gnupg-users mailing list for advise on how to solve problems. Most of the new features are around for several years and thus enough public experience is available. https://wiki.gnupg.org has user contributed information around GnuPG and relate software. In case of build problems specific to this release please first check https://dev.gnupg.org/T5234 for updated information. Please consult the archive of the gnupg-users mailing list before reporting a bug: https://gnupg.org/documentation/mailing-lists.html.

Message-ID: <87v9bgw4rb.fsf@wheatstone.g10code.de> Hi! A severe bug was reported yesterday evening against Libgcrypt 1.9.0 which we released last week. A new version to fix this as weel as a couple of build problems will be released today. In the meantime please stop using 1.9.0. It seems that Fedora 34 and Gentoo are already using 1.9.0 .

We have to announce the availability of Libgcrypt version 1.9.1. This version fixes a *critical security bug* in the recently released version 1.9.0. If you are already using 1.9.0 please update immediately to 1.9.1. Libgcrypt is a general purpose library of cryptographic building blocks. It is originally based on code used by GnuPG. It does not provide any implementation of OpenPGP or other protocols. Thorough understanding of applied cryptography is required to use Libgcrypt. Impact and timeline =================== Only one released version is affected: - Libgcrypt 1.9.0 (released 2021-01-19) All other versions are not affected. On 2021-01-28 Tavis Ormandy contacted us to report a severe bug in 1.9.0 which he found while testing GnuPG: There is a heap buffer overflow in libgcrypt due to an incorrect assumption in the block buffer management code. Just decrypting some data can overflow a heap buffer with attacker controlled data, no verification or signature is validated before the vulnerability occurs. The bug was introduced during the the 1.9 development phase about two years ago with commit e76617cbab018dd8f41fd6b4ec6740b5303f7e13 (Reduce overhead on generic hash write function). Exploiting this bug is simple and thus immediate action for 1.9.0 users is required. A CVE-id has not yet been assigned. We track this bug at https://dev.gnupg.org/T5275. The 1.9.0 tarballs on our FTP server have been renamed so that scripts won't be able to get this version anymore. Solution ======== If Libgcrypt versions 1.9.0 is in use please update immediately to version 1.9.1. If you are using the 1.8 LTS branch you are not affected. While you are checking anyway please make sure that you have at least 1.8.5. If you are using a development version build taken from our Git repository you need to update as well. NB: The use of non-released versions in a production environment is strongly discouraged. There is yet no released GnuPG version hich requires Libgcrypt 1.9 Noteworthy changes in Libgcrypt 1.9.1 ===================================== * Bug fixes: - *Fix exploitable bug* in hash functions introduced with 1.9.0. [#5275] - Return an error if a negative MPI is used with sexp scan functions. [#4964] - Check for operational FIPS in the random and KDF functions. [#5243] - Fix compile error on ARMv7 with NEON disabled. [#5251] - Fix self-test in KDF module. [#5254] - Improve assembler checks for better LTO support. [#5255] - Fix assember problem on macOS running on M1. [#5157] - Support older macOS without posix_spawn. [#5159] - Fix 32-bit cross build on x86. [#5257] - Fix non-NEON ARM assembly implementation for SHA512. [#5263] - Fix build problems with the cipher_bulk_ops_t typedef. [#5264] - Fix Ed25519 private key handling for preceding ZEROs.

In short, you may use one of the following methods: - Check the supplied OpenPGP signature. For example to check the signature of the file libgcrypt-1.9.1.tar.bz2 you would use this command: gpg --verify libgcrypt-1.9.1.tar.bz2.sig libgcrypt-1.9.1.tar.bz2 This checks whether the signature file matches the source file. You should see a message indicating that the signature is good and made by one or more of the release signing keys. Make sure that this is a valid key, either by matching the shown fingerprint against a trustworthy list of valid release signing keys or by checking that the key has been signed by trustworthy other keys. See the end of this mail for information on the signing keys. - If you are not able to use an existing version of GnuPG, you have to verify the SHA-1 checksum. On Unix systems the command to do this is either "sha1sum" or "shasum". Assuming you downloaded the file libgcrypt-1.9.1.tar.bz2, you run the command like this: sha1sum libgcrypt-1.9.1.tar.bz2 and check that the output matches the first line from the this list: a15ce7355b028f28a33428eaa0147154861b29d4 libgcrypt-1.9.1.tar.bz2 f4440ce7893c3cf12f633ad4d3f91c77110a3a40 libgcrypt-1.9.1.tar.gz You should also verify that the checksums above are authentic by matching them with copies of this announcement.
