This is related to use of \\f as a marker to denote truncation of a long plaintext line.","published":"2025-12-27T23:15:41.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-13T09:10:00.000Z","status":"Analyzed","sourceIdentifier":"cve@mitre.org","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":4.7,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N"},"cwe":["CWE-347"],"affected":["gnupg/gnupg"],"epss":{"score":0.00113,"percentile":0.01433,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.11%).
