Created yasm tracking bugs for this issue: Affects: epel-all [bug 2259118] Affects: fedora-all [bug 2259119] Note - per yasm's own security.md document only bugs that cause corrupt output are considered to be security issues. Since this bug is just a memory leak - and not a very big one at that, just 49 bytes - this issue should not be a CVE, and definitely should not have a medium priority. Red Hat Product Security does not consider this to be a vulnerability. |
