I would like to check my understanding of the reported Efail attacks on PGP / GPG mail applications. I have been reading https://efail.de/,
as well as this article by Phil Zimmerman: https://www.itpro.co.uk/encryption/31110/pgp-efail-security-flaw
I check if I understand correctly: Is the following example a good illustration of the Efail attack?
Example
to Recipient@abc.abc
$some mallicious code from the attacker$
-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----
Ez0nOLk5U9jhOAPIvZscmtQzrsJp1HBXGudsukvjdoY=
...---...
-----END PGP MESSAGE-----
$or Some malicious code after the encrypted message$
In other words, is it true than if a PGP mailer ignores all text before and after the encrypted message, then it will not be affected by such attack?
