Vulnerabilities

yasm commit 9defefae was discovered to contain a NULL pointer dereference via the yasm_section_bcs_append function at section.c.

An issue in YASM 1.3.0.86.g9def allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via the yasm_section_bcs_first function in the libyasm/section.c component.

Yasm v1.3.0.78 was found prone to NULL Pointer Dereference in /libyasm/intnum.c and /elf/elf.c, which allows the attacker to cause a denial of service via a crafted file.

yasm 1.3.0.55.g101bc was discovered to contain a segmentation violation via the function do_directive at /nasm/nasm-pp.c.

yasm v1.3.0 was discovered to contain a memory leak via the function yasm_intnum_copy at /libyasm/intnum.c. Note: Multiple third parties dispute this as a bug and not a vulnerability according to the YASM security policy.

YASM v1.3.0 was discovered to contain a heap overflow via the function handle_dot_label at /nasm/nasm-token.re. Note: This has been disputed by third parties who argue this is a bug and not a security issue because yasm is a standalone program not designed to run untrusted code.

yasm 1.3.0.55.g101bc was discovered to contain a stack overflow via the function parse_expr1 at /nasm/nasm-parse.c. Note: This has been disputed by third parties who argue this is a bug and not a security issue because yasm is a standalone program not designed to run untrusted code.

yasm 1.3.0.55.g101bc has a segmentation violation in the function delete_Token at modules/preprocs/nasm/nasm-pp.c. NOTE: although a libyasm application could become unavailable if this were exploited, the vendor's position is that there is no security relevance because there is either supposed to be input validation before data reaches libyasm, or a sandbox in which the application runs.
