GHSA-ch5h-mpfr-fhxh PUBLISHED CVSS 7.5 HIGH

Record from GitHub Advisory Database · Published May 24, 2022

Interaction between the sks-keyserver code through 1.2.0 of the SKS keyserver network, and GnuPG through 2.2.16, makes it risky to have a GnuPG keyserver configuration line referring to a host on the SKS keyserver network. Retrieving data from this network may cause a persistent denial of service, because of a Certificate Spamming Attack.
