CVE-2017-10686 NASM vulnerabilities
Title: NASM vulnerabilities
Summary: NASM could be made to crash or run programs if it opened a specially
crafted file.
It was discovered that NASM incorrectly handled certain source files. If a
user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted
source file, a remote attacker could use these issues to cause NASM to
crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary
code.
Instructions: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
