Описание
Vim is an open source, command line text editor. A segmentation fault was found in Vim before 9.1.1043. In silent Ex mode (-s -e), Vim typically doesn't show a screen and just operates silently in batch mode. However, it is still possible to trigger the function that handles the scrolling of a gui version of Vim by feeding some binary characters to Vim. The function that handles the scrolling however may be triggering a redraw, which will access the ScreenLines pointer, even so this variable hasn't been allocated (since there is no screen). This vulnerability is fixed in 9.1.1043.
A flaw was found in Vim. In silent Ex mode (-s -e), Vim typically doesn't show a screen and operates silently in batch mode, however, it is possible to trigger the function that handles the scrolling of a GUI version of Vim via binary characters. The function that handles the scrolling may trigger a redraw, which will access the ScreenLines pointer and can cause a segmentation fault condition. This may lead to an application crash or other undefined behavior.
Отчет
In order to trigger this issue, a local user must intentionally and explicitly feed some binary data to Vim in ex mode. Thus, Red Hat considers the impact Low.
