Description
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-7147)
CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption
CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
A buffer over-read exists in the function crc64ib in crc64.c in nasmlib in Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc16. A crafted asm input can cause segmentation faults, leading to denial-of-service.
2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-16382)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: 6.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to buffer over-read in x86/regflags.c. A remote attacker can perform a denial of service attack.
3) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-10316)
CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow
CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
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.
4) Division by zero (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-10016)
CWE-ID: CWE-369 - Divide By Zero
CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0 has a division-by-zero vulnerability in the expr5 function in asm/eval.c via a malformed input file.
