CVE-2012-3587 critical priority: Ubuntu including 1 source packages (apt), 6 status rows across 6 suites (hardy, lucid, natty, oneiric, precise, upstream): released 5, needs-triage 1.

Description:

APT 0.7.x before 0.7.25 and 0.8.x before 0.8.16, when using the apt-key net-update to import keyrings, relies on GnuPG argument order and does not check GPG subkeys, which might allow remote attackers to install Trojan horse packages via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack.
