Yes, keyserver.ubuntu.com seems to be working properly now. http://sks-keyservers.net/status/ shows the canonical.com keyservers as properly configured and operational. The keyserver.ubuntu.com configuration and daily statistics look reasonable. The original reporter's key seems to have propagated to other keyservers.
** Description changed: The default keyserver in Kubuntu is keyserver.ubuntu.com. However, weeks after updating a key's information to that server, the information has still not propagated to pgp.mit.edu. (Complete synchronization should occur every few hours.) To see this: - Compare the information on the two servers for the key 362912BB. You will additional addresses associated with that key on the ubuntu server compared to the addresses associated with the key on the MIT server. + Compare the information on the two servers for the key 362912B8. You will additional addresses associated with that key on the ubuntu server compared to the addresses associated with the key on the MIT server. Or: - Perform a search on the two servers for "ccc.oxon": the key 362912BB shows up when keyserver.ubuntu.com is searched, but not when pgp.mit.edu is searched. + Perform a search on the two servers for "ccc.oxon": the key 362912B8 shows up when keyserver.ubuntu.com is searched, but not when pgp.mit.edu is searched. I am not sure whether to classify this as a security vulnerability. It definitely IS a security vulnerability, but not to the OS per se, and I'm not sure what criteria you use to flag something as a security vulnerability (maybe those criteria should be linked somewhere on the bug submission page). Working on the principle that it's better to err on the side of caution, I will mark this as a security vulnerability; I apologise in advance if this report does not meet your criteria. ** Changed in: ubuntu-website Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- keyserver.ubuntu.com does not seem to synchronize with other important keyservers (MIT in particular) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/180184 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
