*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

>GnuPG (gpg) 1.4.8 and 2.0.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial
of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted
duplicate keys that are imported from key servers, which triggers
"memory corruption around deduplication of user IDs."

I could not find any information on this bug on launchpad or any other
ubuntu site. Has this been fixed? A fix has been released [1] two weeks
ago already.
