Quote:
These statements are highly misleading and potentially dangerous. PGP is not broken. The vulnerabilities identified by eFail are not flaws with the OpenPGP protocol itself but rather flaws in certain implementations of PGP, including in Apple Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird, and Microsoft Outlook. Many other commonly used software based upon PGP are not affected by the eFail vulnerability in any way, as the researchers themselves point out in their paper.
As an open standard, anybody can implement PGP, and it comes as no surprise that some implementations have security weaknesses. However, this does not mean PGP itself is broken.
