  A buffer overflow was discovered in GnuPG.  By tricking a user into 
  running gpg interactively on a specially crafted message, an attacker 
  could execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges.  This 
  vulnerability is not exposed when running gpg in batch mode.  
  (CVE-2006-6169)

  Tavis Ormandy discovered that gnupg was incorrectly using the stack.  
  If a user were tricked into processing a specially crafted message, an 
  attacker could execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges.
