This works by specifying the keygrip instead of an algorithm (section
number 13) and requires that the option -expert has been used. It
will be easy to extend this to the primary key.
Without this patch, pk2 would be freed twice.

Subject: [PATCH] avoid use of freed pointer
If we free pk2 at the top of the for-loop, set it to NULL
so that we don't free it again just before returning.
* revoke.c (gen_desig_revoke): Don't use pk2 after freeing it.
This patch implementes a chunk mode to pass the key parameters from
scdaemon to gpg. This allows to pass arbitrary long key paremeters;
it is used for keys larger than 3072 bit.
Note: the card key generation in gpg is currently broken. The keys
are generated but it is not possible to create the self-signature
because at that time the gpg-agent does not yet know about the new
keys and thus can't divert the sign request to the card. We either
need to run the learn command right after calling agent_scd_genkey or
implement a way to sign using the currently inserted card. Another
option would be to get rid of agent_scd_genkey and implement the
feature directly in agent_genkey.
Returning -1 as an error code is not very clean given that gpg error
has more descriptive error codes. Thus we now return
GPG_ERR_NOT_FOUND for all search operations and adjusted all callers.
The protection used in the exported key used a different iteration
count than given in the S2K field. Thus all OpenPGP keys exported
from GnuPG 2.1-beta can't be imported again. Given that the actual
secret key material is kept in private-keys-v1.d/ the can be
re-exported with this fixed version.
Since 2009-12-08 gpg was not able to find email addresses indicated
by a leading '<'. This happened when I merged the user id
classification code of gpgsm and gpg.
This helps in the case of an unknown key algorithm with a corrupted
packet which claims a longer packet length. This used to allocate the
announced packet length and then tried to fill it up without detecting
an EOF, thus taking quite some time. IT is easy to fix, thus we do
it. However, there are many other ways to force gpg to use large
amount of resources; thus as before it is strongly suggested that the
sysadm uses ulimit do assign suitable resource limits to the gpg
process. Suggested by Timo Schulz.
This was a regression in 2.1 introduced due to having the agent do the
signing in contrast to the old "SCD PKSIGN" command which accesses the
scdaemon directly and passed the hash algorithm. The hash algorithm
is used by app-openpgp.c only for a sanity check.
The import test imports the keys as needed and because they are
passphrase protected we now need a pinentry script to convey the
passphrase to gpg-agent.
The basic network code from http.c is used for finger. This keeps the
network related code at one place and we are able to use the somewhat
matured code form http.c. Unfortunately I had to enhance the http
code for more robustness and probably introduced new bugs.
Test this code using
gpg --fetch-key finger:wk@g10code.com
(I might be the last user of finger ;-)
DECRYPTION_INFO <mdc_method> <sym_algo>
Print information about the symmetric encryption algorithm and
the MDC method. This will be emitted even if the decryption
fails.
Wrote the ChangeLog 2011-01-13 entry for Andrey's orginal work modulo
the cleanups I did in the last week. Adjusted my own ChangeLog
entries to be consistent with that entry.
Nuked quite some trailing spaces; again sorry for that, I will better
take care of not saving them in the future. "git diff -b" is useful
to read the actual changes ;-).
The ECC-INTEGRATION-2-1 branch can be closed now.
Import and export of secret keys does now work. Encryption has been
fixed to be compatible with the sample messages.
This version tests for new Libgcrypt function and thus needs to be
build with a new Libgcrypt installed.
Quite some changes were needed but in the end we have less code than
before. Instead of trying to do everything with MPIs and pass them
back and forth between Libgcrypt and GnuPG, we know use the
S-expression based interface and make heavy use of our opaque MPI
feature.
Encryption, decryption, signing and verification work with
self-generared keys.
Import and export does not yet work; thus it was not possible to check
the test keys at https://sites.google.com/site/brainhub/pgpecckeys .
