In Netwide Assembler (NASM) 2.14rc0, there is an illegal address access in the function paste_tokens() in preproc.c, aka a NULL pointer dereference. It will lead to remote denial of service.
A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.
