linux - PGP/GPG unable to decrypt -



linux - PGP/GPG unable to decrypt -

i have issue decrypting 1 file. receiving file via email. able decrypt on windows using pgptools no issues. when trying decrypt file on linux getting next error:

gpg: no valid openpgp info found.

gpg: decrypt_message failed: unknown scheme error

the command running on linux is

/usr/bin/gpg --batch --passphrase myphrase -o '/myfolder/file.csv' -d '/myfolder/file.csv.exe'

this command part of perl module wrote other projects. working no issues else. file having issues with.

please advise.

self-decrypting messages (thus beingness wrapped in executable) not specified in openpgp, , not supported gnupg. tell sender encrypted file should send standard openpgp messages instead.

self-decrypting messages horrible thought anyway. receive message, , cannot sure came from. read it, you're required execute software unknown source contain pretty much anything, malicious code.

linux encryption gnupg pgp
