Description

I was just emailed privately by an Arch Linux developer regarding CVE-2018-15587 in Evolution, and two vulnerabilities in GDM (I'll file a separate ticket for that). 

GNOME Evolution through 3.28.2 is prone to OpenPGP signatures being spoofed for arbitrary messages using a specially crafted email that contains a valid signature from the entity to be impersonated as an attachment.

You can find a patch here:

[https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/commit/9c55a311325f5905d8b8403b96607e46cf343f21]

There is a possibility that you might not be able to backport it to 3.30 though, but I figured I would give you a heads up.
