Description:

Jonathan Rockway discovered a buffer overflow in nasm, the
general-purpose x86 assembler, which could lead to the execution of
arbitrary code when compiling a maliciously crafted assembler source
file.
For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.98.28cvs-1woody2.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.98.38-1.1.
We recommend that you upgrade your nasm package.
