For Integer Truncation of Arguments report, since the int value is limited to one-octet value, we could add check for the length of input when we use strtol.

Added a compatibility flag in: rGad0c6c33c3d6: gpg: Do not use a default when asking for another output filename.
This feature should be only enabled with a compatibility flag.
Mitigation would be: adding context validation in add_onepass_sig function, which checks WHAT of armored input.
Pushed the revised change to master.

Fixed in 2.5.13.
@onickolay The change was originally introduced for PQC stuff. And then, we applied use of KEM API (of libgcrypt) also for ordinary ECDH, so, it affected ordinary ECDH encryption (between 2.5.9 and 2.5.12).
The intention is follow the recommendation of use of KEM. IIUC, next FIPS certification will require use of KEM, possibly.

Thank you for your report.
Note that:
If we consider backporting this to 1.10/1.11 branch, we also need to apply: rCdef1d4ea8f66: random:jent: Fix build with address sanitizer.

Thanks for your feedback.

For the initial attempt, I push: rCfe06287003a1: secmem: Handle HAVE_BROKEN_MLOCK for the case with ASAN.
This is better than nothing.

Still, there is a fundamental problem with keydb locking.
- It only assures no-data-corruption.
- When a process doing write access, another process reading the resource may encounter a problem (inconsistent data read), since data could be changed while accessing.
- Currently, write access may occur with keybox compress, this means that users are not safe to invoke multiple gpg/gpgsm simultaneously (to be sure).
- It would be: only keybox compress when users explicitly ask.
- We could introduce a lock to read access... BUT naively adding a lock (both for read and write or read-multiple-write-one) results possible deadlock in gpgsm
- in gpgsm, gpgsm_walk_cert_chain and gpgsm_validate_chain access the resource of keydb in a way of:
- While it has a handle kh, by find_up routine, it may call keydb_store_cert by callback routine; The callback does write access to the resource opening another handle.
- Currently, it works because of no lock for read access and keydb_store_cert appends data at the end.
- in gpgsm, gpgsm_walk_cert_chain and gpgsm_validate_chain access the resource of keydb in a way of:
- Currently, write access may occur with keybox compress, this means that users are not safe to invoke multiple gpg/gpgsm simultaneously (to be sure).
All changes in gniibe/t7855 are pushed into master.

This issue should be fixed in 2.6, too.
Pushed the change to gnupg master: rG61ff3759e827: common,dirmngr:w32: Fix for semi-hosted environment.
In libgpg-error, I pushed thread-safe version : rE0313b660f8bd: w32: Don't convert slash->backslash when it's under Wine.
I'm going to push similar code to gnupg master.
Oct 17 2025
Lastly, pushed a change into gniibe/t7855 branch.
rGf861b2a33f96: gpg,gpgsm: Fix thinko for FP closing under no lock.
Oct 16 2025
I pushed further changes into gniibe/t7855 branch.
rG2fe62809014e: gpg,gpgsm: Serialize write access to keybox/keyring to protect.
Oct 15 2025
For remaining changes in 2.2, I pushed changes into gniibe/t7855 branch.
rGbd65b06b74c2: gpg,gpgsm: Don't lock recursively when KEEP_LOCK is enabled.
rG423fd047da87: kbx,gpg,gpgsm: Add FP-close method for keydb to close before unlock.
rG966258ac5f99: gpgsm: Fix delete and store certificate locking glitches.
I pushed changes into gniibe/t7855 for compressing the keybox.
rG8cc2a0e0ffee: gpg: Minor clean up for keydb_lock API.
rGe4d3c3aa2220: kbx,gpg,gpgsm: Introduce keybox_compress_when_no_other_users.
rG3e441d5b299f: kbx,gpg,gpgsm: More changes for compressing the keybox.
Oct 14 2025
Then, we need to integrate following commits of 2.2 into gniibe/t7855 branch:
rG43fe9073aa81: gpg,gpgsm: Tweak the locking of the pubring.kbx
rG8491aca73cff: gpg: Revert the always locking introduced with 43fe9073aa
rGad4a5117ab1c: gpgsm: Properly release the lock when compressing a pubring.
rG7962eca3a023: gpgsm: Change delete and store certificate locking glitches.
rG22f9c4a3b3c1: gpg: Release lock after close also in the compress code path.
I created gniibe/t7855 branch for this issue.
To start with, I forward-port/cherry-pick 2.2 commits to the branch:
rG39430d9f78dc: build,common,g13,sm,tools: Require GpgRT 1.56.
rGe71aca2a628d: common: New function gnupg_remove_ext.
rGe38c5f7d5873: w32:common: Take care of possible race on startup under Windows.
rG7bfd37e305c0: common,w32: Always use share mode readwrite for the keybox.
@timegrid Thank you for your confirmation.
Sorry for my late review. I should have reviewed earlier.
