Upgrade Gwenhywfar to version 5.14.3 or later, where this use-after-free vulnerability is fixed. No other mitigation or workaround is indicated.

Description

Gwenhywfar versions 5.14.2 up to but not including 5.14.3 contain a heap use-after-free vulnerability in the GWEN_TLV_Buffer_To_DB() function. This flaw occurs when parsing a nested BER-TLV record with unparseable contents, leading to the freeing of a database node that is still used afterward, causing heap corruption. The vulnerability can be triggered by supplying specially crafted BER-TLV data, such as from a malicious chip card read by libchipcard. A fix is available in version 5.14.3.
