1. Summary:

 

An updated ccid package that fixes one security issue and one bug are now

which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in

the References section.

 

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

3. Description:

 

Chip/Smart Card Interface Devices (CCID) is a USB smart card reader

standard followed by most modern smart card readers. The ccid package

provides a Generic, USB-based CCID driver for readers, which follow this

standard.

 

An integer overflow, leading to an array index error, was found in the way

the CCID driver processed a smart card's serial number. A local attacker

could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the

user running the PC/SC Lite pcscd daemon (root, by default), by inserting a

specially-crafted smart card. (CVE-2010-4530)

 

This update also fixes the following bug:

 

* Previously, CCID only recognized smart cards with 5V power supply. With

this update, CCID also supports smart cards with different power supply.

(BZ#808115)

 

All users of ccid are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which

contains backported patches to correct these issues.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
