Installing NVM - curl: (23) Failure writing output to destination - Permision denied

I was trying to download the node 18 on Ubuntu 22.04, however, I couldn't do it by apt-get or do so by nvm. I need help, because without node I can't develop my projetcs. I'm from Brazil, so some of the phrases on terminal are in portuguese, I'll translate them.

Terminal message

nvm install 18

Used command nvm install 18 trying download node, but that message was shown on terminal when I did.

Tried to solve with this command sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* ; sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/* ; sudo apt-get clean ; sudo apt-get -f install ; sudo apt-get update but didn't work.

I searched for a answer on other foruns, and I found a situation similiar to mine. I installed the curl using sudo snap install curl, when I wasn't able to install anything using apt-get. But I discovered that method was useless, because apparently curl doesn't work properly.

I found my answers here: curl: (23) Failure writing output to destination.

Basically the way to solved it is to remove the curl and reinstalled by using apt-get

sudo snap remove curl
sudo apt-get install curl

With this everything goes back to normal.
