TencentOS Server 4: opensc (TSSA-2024:0894)

high Nessus Plugin ID 238617

Synopsis

The remote TencentOS Server 4 host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TSSA-2024:0894 advisory.

Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2024-8443:
A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the libopensc OpenPGP driver. A crafted USB device or smart card with malicious responses to the APDUs during the card enrollment process using the `pkcs15-init` tool may lead to out-of-bound rights, possibly resulting in arbitrary code execution.

CVE-2024-45620:
A vulnerability was found in the pkcs15-init tool 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. When buffers are partially filled with data, initialized parts of the buffer can be incorrectly accessed.

CVE-2024-45619:
A vulnerability was found in OpenSC, OpenSC tools, PKCS#11 module, minidriver, and CTK. An attacker could use a crafted USB Device or Smart Card, which would present the system with a specially crafted response to APDUs. When buffers are partially filled with data, initialized parts of the buffer can be incorrectly accessed.

CVE-2024-45618:
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.

CVE-2024-45617:
A vulnerability was found in OpenSC, OpenSC tools, PKCS#11 module, minidriver, and CTK. 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.

CVE-2024-45616:
A vulnerability was found in OpenSC, OpenSC tools, PKCS#11 module, minidriver, and CTK. An attacker could use a crafted USB Device or Smart Card, which would present the system with a specially crafted response to APDUs.

The following problems were caused by insufficient control of the response APDU buffer and its length when communicating with the card.

CVE-2024-45615:
A vulnerability was found in OpenSC, OpenSC tools, PKCS#11 module, minidriver, and CTK.
The problem is missing initialization of variables expected to be initialized (as arguments to other functions, etc.).

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
