GPG Decryption fails for files > 1MB

[david.vazquez_landa at ecb.int]

Hello list,

 

We have an issue with one of our users. When he sends encrypted messages larger than ~1 MB, we get these errors:

 

8218 - PGP decryption error - gpg: encrypted with RSA key, ID CD5AA2E4

gpg: encrypted with 2048-bit RSA key, ID B44D925D, created 2006-03-29

      "Mehdi Rahman <mr at bvdep.com>"

gpg: encrypted with 2048-bit RSA key, ID 4E9BF326, created 2010-03-16

      "Mehdi Rahman <Mehdi.Rahman at bvdinfo.com>"

gpg: encrypted with 2048-bit ELG-E key, ID 044C8E09, created 2008-04-04

      "EXDI_STC (EXDI PGP key for STC) <exdidata.stats at ecb.int>"

gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=27)

gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=0d)

gpg: mdc_packet with invalid encoding

gpg: decryption failed: invalid packet

gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=0a)

gpg: block_filter: pending bytes!

gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.

 

This is the output of gpg.exe –version:

 

$ /cygdrive/d/GNU/GnuPG/gpg.exe --version

gpg (GnuPG) 1.4.8

Is this a gnupg bug?
