Summary
Updated libcrypt packages fix a security vulnerability
Details

Updated libgcrypt packages fix security vulnerability:

When libgcrypt uses the private key to create a signature, such as for a TLS or SSH connection, it inadvertently leaks information through memory caches. An unprivileged attacker running on the same machine can collect the information from a few thousand signatures and recover the value of the private ECDSA or DSA key (CVE-2018-0495).
