Exclusive: The backdoor inserted in v1.95.7 adds an "addToQueue" function which exfiltrates the private key through seemingly-legitimate CloudFlare headers.
Calls to this function are then inserted in various places that (legitimately) access the private key.

Smartcards are widely used for physical access to secure facilities and notably in finance. They have evolved from magnetic bands to secure element chips that store critical security information like asymmetric cryptographic private keys.
