The version of opensc installed on the remote host is prior to 0.19.0-5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2023-2262 advisory.

    OpenSC before 0.20.0-rc1 has an out-of-bounds access of an ASN.1 Bitstring in decode_bit_string in     libopensc/asn1.c. (CVE-2019-15945)

    OpenSC before 0.20.0-rc1 has an out-of-bounds access of an ASN.1 Octet string in asn1_decode_entry in     libopensc/asn1.c. (CVE-2019-15946)

    An issue was discovered in OpenSC through 0.19.0 and 0.20.x through 0.20.0-rc3. libopensc/card-setcos.c     has an incorrect read operation during parsing of a SETCOS file attribute. (CVE-2019-19479)

    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. (CVE-2019-20792)

    The Oberthur smart card software driver in OpenSC before 0.21.0-rc1 has a heap-based buffer overflow in     sc_oberthur_read_file. (CVE-2020-26570)
