How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Ubuntu:14.04 gnupg.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gnupg package and not the gnupg package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:14.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

Interaction between the sks-keyserver code through 1.2.0 of the SKS keyserver network, and GnuPG through 2.2.16, makes it risky to have a GnuPG keyserver configuration line referring to a host on the SKS keyserver network. Retrieving data from this network may cause a persistent denial of service, because of a Certificate Spamming Attack.
