Описание
Heap-based Buffer Overflow in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 9.0.0061.
A heap buffer overflow vulnerability was found in vim's ins_compl_infercase_gettext() function of the src/insexpand.c file. This flaw occurs when vim tries to access uninitialized memory when completing a long line. This flaw allows an attacker to trick a user into opening a specially crafted file, triggering a heap-based buffer overflow that causes an application to crash, possibly executing code and corrupting memory.
Отчет
Red Hat Product Security has rated this issue as having a Low security impact because the "victim" has to run an untrusted file IN SCRIPT MODE. Someone who is running untrusted files in script mode is equivalent to someone just taking a random python script and running it. For additional information, refer to the Issue Severity Classification: https://access.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/
Меры по смягчению последствий
Untrusted vim scripts with -s [scriptin] are not recommended to run.
