Description Sam Fowler 2018-09-12 05:53:15 UTC

A double free when handling responses from an HSM Card in sc_pkcs15emu_sc_hsm_init in libopensc/pkcs15-sc-hsm.c in OpenSC before 0.19.0-rc1 could be used by attackers able to supply crafted smartcards to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact.

Comment 1 Sam Fowler 2018-09-12 05:53:48 UTC

Created opensc tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 1628024]

Comment 3 Doran Moppert 2018-09-18 07:58:18 UTC

Does not appear to affect opensc-0.16.0, which bails out early when unable to read EF.C_DevAut rather than attempting to save the context and continue.
