Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.4
Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.4 (2006-06-25)
------------------------------------------------
* User IDs are now capped 2048 byte. This avoids a memory
allocation attack (see CVE-2006-3082).
* Added support for the SHA-224 hash. Like the SHA-384 hash, it
is mainly useful when DSS (the US Digital Signature Standard)
compatibility is desired.
