No, this is a bug in duplicity. If you see this warning, duplicity (or whichever
part of the its dependencies use python-crypto) uses AES in CTR mode incorrectly
allowing a potential attacker to cause buffer overflows any maybe exploit them.

Reassinging to duplicity. Please fix the use of AES-CTR.

Cheers
