Description

This security bulletin contains information about 8 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-15945)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when processing ASN.1 Bitstring within the decode_bit_string() function in libopensc/asn1.c. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.


2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-15946)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when processing ASN.1 Octet string within the asn1_decode_entry() function in libopensc/asn1.c. A local user can supply specially crafted data to the application, trigger out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.


3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-19479)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when parsing SETCOS file attribute in libopensc/card-setcos.c. A local user can pass specially crafted file to the application, trigger out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.


4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-19480)

The vulnerability allows a local user to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the sc_pkcs15_decode_prkdf_entry() function in libopensc/pkcs15-prkey.c. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.


5) Double Free (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-20792)

The vulnerability allows a local non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.

OpenSC before 0.20.0 has a double free in coolkey_free_private_data because coolkey_add_object in libopensc/card-coolkey.c lacks a uniqueness check.


6) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-26570)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the sc_oberthur_read_file. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted file, trick the victim into opening it, trigger heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


7) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-26571)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in sc_pkcs15emu_gemsafeGPK_init. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trigger stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


8) Stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-26572)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in tcos_decipher. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trigger stack-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
