Package(s): | opensc |
CVE #(s): | CVE-2009-0368
|
Created: | March 19, 2009 |
Updated: | June 1, 2009 |
Description: |
opensc has a vulnerability involving insufficient access restrictions
on private data.
From the Red Hat alert:
OpenSC stores private data without proper access restrictions.
User "b.badrignans" reported this security problem on December 4th, 2008.
In June 2007 support form private data objects was added to OpenSC. Only later
a severe security bug was found out: while the OpenSC PKCS#11 implementation
requires PIN verification to access the data, low level APDU commands or
debugging tools like opensc-explorer or opensc-tool can access the private
data without any authentication. This was fixed in OpenSC 0.11.7. |
