Summary
Updated nasm packages fix security vulnerabilities
Details

This update provides nasm 2.13.03 and fixes the following security issues:

In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is a "SEGV on unknown address" that will cause a remote denial of service attack, because asm/preproc.c mishandles macro calls that have the wrong number of arguments.

In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is a heap-based buffer overflow that will cause a remote denial of service attack, related to a strcpy in paste_tokens in asm/preproc.c, a similar issue to CVE-2017-11111.

In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is a heap-based buffer over-read in the function detoken() in asm/preproc.c that will cause a remote denial of service attack.

In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is a use-after-free in the pplistone_macro function in asm/preproc.c that will cause a remote denial of service attack, related to mishandling of line-syntax errors.

In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is a use-after-free in do_directive in asm/preproc.c that will cause a remote denial of service attack.

In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is an illegal address access in is_mmacro() in asm/preproc.c that will cause a remote denial of service attack, because of a missing check for the relationship between minimum and maximum parameter counts.

In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is a use-after-free in pp_getline in asm/preproc.c that will cause a remote denial of service attack.

In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is a use-after-free in pp_verror in asm/preproc.c that will cause a remote denial of service attack.

In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is a heap-based buffer over-read that will cause a remote denial of service attack, related to a while loop in paste_tokens in asm/preproc.c.

In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is an illegal address access in the function findcc() in asm/preproc.c that will cause a remote denial of service attack, because pointers associated with skipwhite_ calls are not validated.

In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is a use-after-free in pplistone_macro in asm/preproc.c that will lead to a remote denial of service attack, related to mishandling of operand-type errors.
