CVE-2021-33560 : Libgcrypt before 1.8.8 and 1.9.x before 1.9.3 mishandles ElGamal encryption beca

Libgcrypt before 1.8.8 and 1.9.x before 1.9.3 mishandles ElGamal encryption because it lacks exponent blinding to address a side-channel attack against mpi_powm, and the window size is not chosen appropriately. This, for example, affects use of ElGamal in OpenPGP.
