Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for gnupg1. I'm aware this
is only the legacy packages, the issue though is present there and not
having the fix in buster will later on represent a regression from
updates from stretch. Thus the RC severity as well as reasoning.

CVE-2018-12020[0]:
filename sanitization problem in GnuPG

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
