NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream lasso package and not the lasso package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The prefix variable in the get_or_define_ns function in Lasso before commit 6d854cef4211cdcdbc7446c978f23ab859847cdd allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (uninitialized memory access and application crash) via unspecified vectors.
