CVE-2024-8443
2.9 - Low
- September 10, 2024
A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the libopensc OpenPGP driver. A crafted USB device or smart card with malicious responses to the APDUs during the card enrollment process using the `pkcs15-init` tool may lead to out-of-bound rights, possibly resulting in arbitrary code execution.
Memory Corruption
A vulnerability was found in OpenSC, OpenSC tools, PKCS#11 module, minidriver, and CTK
CVE-2024-45619
4.3 - Medium
- September 03, 2024
A vulnerability was found in OpenSC, OpenSC tools, PKCS#11 module, minidriver, and CTK. An attacker could use a crafted USB Device or Smart Card, which would present the system with a specially crafted response to APDUs. When buffers are partially filled with data, initialized parts of the buffer can be incorrectly accessed.
Classic Buffer Overflow
A vulnerability was found in the pkcs15-init tool in OpenSC
CVE-2024-45620
3.9 - Low
- September 03, 2024
A vulnerability was found in the pkcs15-init tool in OpenSC. An attacker could use a crafted USB Device or Smart Card, which would present the system with a specially crafted response to APDUs. When buffers are partially filled with data, initialized parts of the buffer can be incorrectly accessed.
Classic Buffer Overflow
A vulnerability was found in OpenSC, OpenSC tools, PKCS#11 module, minidriver, and CTK
CVE-2024-45615
3.9 - Low
- September 03, 2024
A vulnerability was found in OpenSC, OpenSC tools, PKCS#11 module, minidriver, and CTK. The problem is missing initialization of variables expected to be initialized (as arguments to other functions, etc.).
Use of Uninitialized Resource
A vulnerability was found in OpenSC, OpenSC tools, PKCS#11 module, minidriver, and CTK
CVE-2024-45616
3.9 - Low
- September 03, 2024

The use-after-free vulnerability was found in the AuthentIC driver in OpenSC packages
CVE-2024-1454
3.4 - Low
- February 12, 2024
The use-after-free vulnerability was found in the AuthentIC driver in OpenSC packages, occuring in the card enrolment process using pkcs15-init when a user or administrator enrols or modifies cards. An attacker must have physical access to the computer system and requires a crafted USB device or smart card to present the system with specially crafted responses to the APDUs, which are considered high complexity and low severity. This manipulation can allow for compromised card management operations during enrolment.
Dangling pointer
A vulnerability was found in OpenSC where PKCS#1 encryption padding removal is not implemented as side-channel resistant
CVE-2023-5992
5.9 - Medium
- January 31, 2024
A vulnerability was found in OpenSC where PKCS#1 encryption padding removal is not implemented as side-channel resistant. This issue may result in the potential leak of private data.
Side Channel Attack
A flaw was found in OpenSC packages that allow a potential PIN bypass
CVE-2023-40660
6.6 - Medium
- November 06, 2023
A flaw was found in OpenSC packages that allow a potential PIN bypass. When a token/card is authenticated by one process, it can perform cryptographic operations in other processes when an empty zero-length pin is passed. This issue poses a security risk, particularly for OS logon/screen unlock and for small, permanently connected tokens to computers. Additionally, the token can internally track login status. This flaw allows an attacker to gain unauthorized access, carry out malicious actions, or compromise the system without the user's awareness.
authentification
An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in OpenSC packages within the MyEID driver when handling symmetric key encryption
CVE-2023-4535
3.8 - Low
- November 06, 2023
An out-of-bounds read vulnerability was found in OpenSC packages within the MyEID driver when handling symmetric key encryption. Exploiting this flaw requires an attacker to have physical access to the computer and a specially crafted USB device or smart card. This flaw allows the attacker to manipulate APDU responses and potentially gain unauthorized access to sensitive data, compromising the system's security.
Out-of-bounds Read
Several memory vulnerabilities were identified within the OpenSC packages
CVE-2023-40661
6.4 - Medium
- November 06, 2023
Several memory vulnerabilities were identified within the OpenSC packages, particularly in the card enrollment process using pkcs15-init when a user or administrator enrolls cards. To take advantage of these flaws, an attacker must have physical access to the computer system and employ a custom-crafted USB device or smart card to manipulate responses to APDUs. This manipulation can potentially allow compromise key generation, certificate loading, and other card management operations during enrollment.
Buffer Overflow
Stack overflow vulnerability in OpenSC smart card middleware before 0.23
CVE-2021-34193
7.5 - High
- August 22, 2023
Stack overflow vulnerability in OpenSC smart card middleware before 0.23 via crafted responses to APDUs.
Memory Corruption
A vulnerbility was found in OpenSC
CVE-2023-2977
7.1 - High
- June 01, 2023
A vulnerbility was found in OpenSC. This security flaw cause a buffer overrun vulnerability in pkcs15 cardos_have_verifyrc_package. The attacker can supply a smart card package with malformed ASN1 context. The cardos_have_verifyrc_package function scans the ASN1 buffer for 2 tags, where remaining length is wrongly caculated due to moved starting pointer. This leads to possible heap-based buffer oob read. In cases where ASAN is enabled while compiling this causes a crash. Further info leak or more damage is possible.
