Description

GnuPG through 2.3.6, in unusual situations where an attacker possesses any secret-key information from a victim's keyring and other constraints (e.g., use of GPGME) are met, allows signature forgery via injection into the status line. A vulnerability was found in GnuPG. This issue occurs due to an escape detection loop at the write_status_text_and_buffer() function in g10/cpr.c. This flaw allows a malicious actor to bypass access control.
