How to fix?

There is no fixed version for nasm.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Use After Free in the response file processing due to a dangling pointer to freed memory being stored in the global depend_file and later dereferenced after the response-file buffer is freed. An attacker can cause data corruption or trigger unexpected behavior by supplying a crafted response file that manipulates memory allocation and deallocation sequences.
