NOTE: some sources refer to this issue as an integer overflow.","published":"2011-01-18T18:03:08.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-16T23:24:59.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"secalert@redhat.com","cvss":{"version":"2.0","score":4.4,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P"},"cwe":["CWE-189"],"affected":["muscle/pcsc-lite"],"epss":{"score":0.00542,"percentile":0.45312,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.54%).
