It can be used to encrypt data and to create digital signatures. It includes an advanced key management facility and is compliant with the proposed OpenPGP Internet standard as described in RFC2440 and the S/MIME standard as described by several RFCs. GnuPG 2.0 is a newer version of GnuPG with additional support for S/MIME. It has a different design philosophy that splits functionality up into several modules. The S/MIME and smartcard functionality is provided by the gnupg2-smime package. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Jul 23 2010 Rex Dieter <rdieter@fedoraproject.org> - 2.0.14-4 - gpgsm realloc patch * Fri Jun 18 2010 Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> - 2.0.14-3 - initialize small amount of secmem for list of algorithms in help (#598847) (necessary in the FIPS mode of libgcrypt) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #618156 - GnuPG 2.0: Use-after-free by importing certificate with many sANs https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=618156 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
