Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Several security vulnerabilities were fixed in opensc, a set of libraries and utilities to access smart cards that support cryptographic operations.

Out-of-bounds reads, buffer overflows and double frees could be used by attackers able to supply crafted smart cards to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 0.16.0-3+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your opensc packages.
