What is CVE-2018-15587?

GNOME Evolution up to version 3.28.2 is vulnerable to manipulation of OpenPGP signatures, allowing attackers to spoof messages from legitimate entities.

As a result, users may be deceived into believing that these fraudulent messages originate from trusted sources, exposing them to potential phishing attacks and security breaches.
