Hello!
The GNU project is pleased to announce the availability of Libgcrypt
version 1.6.5. This is a security fix release to mitigate a new side
channel attack.
Libgcrypt is a general purpose library of cryptographic building blocks.
It does not provide any implementation of OpenPGP or other protocols.
Thorough understanding of applied cryptography is required for proper
use Libgcrypt.
Noteworthy changes in version 1.6.5
===================================
* Mitigate side-channel attack on ECDH with Weierstrass curves
[CVE-2015-7511]. See http://www.cs.tau.ac.IL/~tromer/ecdh/ for
details.
* Fix build problem on Solaris.
Download
========
Please follow the instructions found at <https://gnupg.org/download/> or
read on:
Libgcrypt may be downloaded from one of the GnuPG mirror sites or
From its primary FTP server. The list of mirrors can be found at
<https://gnupg.org/download/mirrors.html>. Note that Libgcrypt is
not available at ftp.gnu.org.
The Libgcrypt source code compressed using BZIP2 and its OpenPGP
signature are available here:
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.6.5.tar.bz2 (2490k)
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.6.5.tar.bz2.sig
or here:
https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.6.5.tar.bz2 (2490k)
https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.6.5.tar.bz2.sig
The same source code but compressed with the older GZIP algorithm is
available here:
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.6.5.tar.gz (2901k)
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.6.5.tar.gz.sig
The affected ECDH algorithm is for example used by GnuPG 2.1 (modern).
An update of Libgcrypt is sufficient to fix this for GnuPG. We have
also updated the Windows installer of that GnuPG version to include this
fixed version of Libgcrypt:
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32-2.1.11_20160209.exe (2630k)
ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32-2.1.11_20160209.exe.sig
or here:
https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32-2.1.11_20160209.exe (2630k)
https://gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32-2.1.11_20160209.exe.sig
The source used to build that Windows installer can be found in the same
directory with a ".tar.xz" suffix.
Checking the Integrity
======================
In order to check that the version of Libgcrypt you are going to build
is an original and unmodified one, you can do it in one of the following
ways:
* Check the supplied OpenPGP signature. For example to check the
signature of the file libgcrypt-1.6.5.tar.bz2 you would use this
command:
gpg --verify libgcrypt-1.6.5.tar.bz2.sig libgcrypt-1.6.5.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 below for information on the signing keys.
* If you are not able to use 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-1.6.5.tar.bz2, you run the command like this:
sha1sum libgcrypt-1.6.5.tar.bz2
and check that the output matches the first line from the
following list:
c3a5a13e717f7b3e3895650afc1b6e0d3fe9c726 libgcrypt-1.6.5.tar.bz2

Release Signing Keys
====================
To guarantee that a downloaded Libgcrypt version has not been tampered
by malicious entities we provide signature files for all tarballs. The
keys are also signed by the long term keys of their respective owners.
Current releases are signed by one or more of these four keys:
2048R/4F25E3B6 2011-01-12 [expires: 2019-12-31]
Key fingerprint = D869 2123 C406 5DEA 5E0F 3AB5 249B 39D2 4F25 E3B6
Werner Koch (dist sig)
rsa2048/E0856959 2014-10-29 [expires: 2019-12-31]
Key fingerprint = 46CC 7308 65BB 5C78 EBAB ADCF 0437 6F3E E085 6959

You may retrieve these keys from a keyserver using this command
gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys \
249B39D24F25E3B6 04376F3EE0856959 \
2071B08A33BD3F06 8A861B1C7EFD60D9
The keys are also available at <https://gnupg.org/signature_key.html> and
in any recently released GnuPG tarball in the file g10/distsigkey.gpg .
Note that this mail has been signed by a different key.

Pipman, and Eran Tromer for notifying us about their attack in advance
and testing the fix.
For the Libgcrypt hackers,
Werner
