An updated ccid package that fixes one security issue and one bug is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having low security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section.

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 :

* The pcscd service failed to read from the SafeNet Smart Card 650 v1 when it was inserted into a smart card reader. The operation failed with a 'IFDHPowerICC() PowerUp failed' error message. This was due to the card taking a long time to respond with a full Answer To Reset (ATR) request, which lead to a timeout, causing the card to fail to power up. This update increases the timeout value so that the aforementioned request is processed properly, and the card is powered on as expected. (BZ#907821)

All ccid users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which contains backported patches to correct these issues.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201401-16 (CCID: Arbitrary code execution)

    CCID contains an integer overflow vulnerability in ccid_serial.c.
  Impact :

    A physically proximate attacker could execute arbitrary code via a smart       card with a specially crafted       serial number.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

This update fixes the following security issue :

An integer overflow, leading to array index error was found in the way USB CCID (Chip/Smart Card Interface Devices) driver processed certain values of card serial number. A local attacker could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code, with the privileges of the user running the pcscd daemon, via a malicious smart card with specially crafted value of its serial number, inserted to the system USB port.

    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.
