CVE-2007-1266: Gnome Evolution

Medium severity, CVSS 5.0. EPSS: 5.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Evolution 2.8.1 and earlier does not properly use the --status-fd argument when invoking GnuPG, which prevents Evolution from visually distinguishing between signed and unsigned portions of OpenPGP messages with multiple components, which allows remote attackers to forge the contents of a message without detection.

Affected products

  • Gnome Evolution: up to and including 2.8.1
