How to fix?

Upgrade Echo:latest opensc to version 0.11.7-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream opensc package and not the opensc package as distributed by Echo. See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

OpenSC before 0.11.7 allows physically proximate attackers to bypass intended PIN requirements and read private data objects via a (1) low level APDU command or (2) debugging tool, as demonstrated by reading the 4601 or 4701 file with the opensc-explorer or opensc-tool program.
