Discussion

OpenSC Smart Card Serial Number Multiple Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

OpenSC is prone to multiple buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input.

Attackers may leverage these issues to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed attacks will cause denial-of-service conditions.

OpenSC 0.11.13 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
