Description Francis Booth 2018-04-23 05:59:52 UTC

Netwide Assembler (nasm) through version 2.13 is vulnerable to a stack-based
buffer over-read in the disasm/disasm.c:disasm() function. An attacker could
exploit this to cause a crash or other unspecified impact via a crafted ELF
file.

Reproducible: Always
