NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream opensc package and not the opensc package as distributed by RHEL.

A vulnerability was found in pkcs15-init 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.

Insufficient or missing checking of return values of functions leads to unexpected work with variables that have not been initialized.
