‘Efail’ exploit exposes popular email encryption schemes

Encrypted emails guarded by common encryption tools are allegedly "susceptible to critical vulnerabilities" that would expose their content to potential hackers.

He subsequently urged users of PGP/GPG and S/Mime software to disable it in their email clients.
