Описание
OpenSC is an open source smart card tools and middleware. Prior to version 0.27.0, sc_compacttlv_find_tag searches a compact-TLV buffer for a given tag. In compact-TLV, a single byte encodes the tag (high nibble) and value length (low nibble). With a 1-byte buffer {0x0A}, the encoded element claims tag=0 and length=10 but no value bytes follow. Calling sc_compacttlv_find_tag with search tag 0x00 returns a pointer equal to buf+1 and outlen=10 without verifying that the claimed value length fits within the remaining buffer. In cases where the sc_compacttlv_find_tag is provided untrusted data (such as being read from cards/files), attackers may be able to influence it to return out-of-bounds pointers leading to downstream memory corruption when subsequent code tries to dereference the pointer. This issue has been patched in version 0.27.0.
A flaw was found in OpenSC, an open-source smart card tools and middleware. The sc_compacttlv_find_tag function, which searches compact-TLV (Tag-Length-Value) buffers, does not adequately verify the claimed value length against the remaining buffer size. This vulnerability allows attackers to provide specially crafted untrusted data, such as from smart cards or files, to influence the function to return pointers outside of the intended memory boundaries. Subsequent attempts to dereference these out-of-bounds pointers can lead to memory corruption, potentially impacting the stability and integrity of the system.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
