EulerOS 2.0 SP3 : nasm (EulerOS-SA-2021-1820)

high Nessus Plugin ID 149129

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing multiple security updates.

Description

According to the versions of the nasm package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - NASM nasm-2.13.03 nasm- 2.14rc15 version 2.14rc15 and earlier contains a memory corruption (crashed) of nasm when handling a crafted file due to function assemble_file(inname, depend_ptr) at asm/nasm.c:482.
 vulnerability in function assemble_file(inname, depend_ptr) at asm/nasm.c:482. that can result in aborting/crash nasm program. This attack appear to be exploitable via a specially crafted asm file..(CVE-2018-1000667)

 - Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.13.02rc2 has a buffer over-read in the parse_line function in asm/parser.c via uncontrolled access to nasm_reg_flags.(CVE-2018-8883)

 - Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0 has a division-by-zero vulnerability in the expr5 function in asm/eval.c via a malformed input file.(CVE-2018-10016)

 - Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0 has an endless while loop in the assemble_file function of asm/nasm.c because of a globallineno integer overflow.(CVE-2018-10316)

 - There is an illegal address access at asm/preproc.c (function: is_mmacro) in Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc16 that will cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access) because a certain conversion can result in a negative integer.(CVE-2018-19755)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected nasm packages.
