I think I may have found the problem. If I'm right, it is an issue of
pcsc-lite in combination with FreeBSD.
Looking into pcsc-lite's file "src/auth.c", we find:
#if defined(HAVE_POLKIT) && defined(SO_PEERCRED)
...
#else
unsigned IsClientAuthorized(int socket, const char* action, const char* reader)
{
(void)socket;
(void)action;
(void)reader;
return 1;
}
#endif
See:

If I'm not mistaken, SO_PEERCRED is not set by the build system and it
is not defined on FreeBSD (but only on Linux). Then pcsc-lite defaults
to simply assume that any client is always authorized. Not good.
I wasn't able to get the build working, so maybe someone can check if
my guess is correct.
Kind regards,

Right, that'd be a problem. Something like this might work, but I
haven't even build tested it:

It could be cleaned up a little bit if it works.
Thanks,
