Описание
Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to 9.2.0840, runtime/plugin/netrwPlugin.vim loads netrw and runtime/pack/dist/opt/netrw/autoload/netrw.vim constructs Bookmarks, History, and Targets menu entries by interpolating attacker-controlled directory paths into executed :menu commands. s:NetrwBookmarkMenu(), s:NetrwTgtMenu(), g:netrw_menu_escape, EX_TRLBAR, and netrw#MakeTgt() fail to neutralize the | command separator or single quotes at five construction sites, allowing a crafted path browsed or bookmarked in GUI Vim to execute arbitrary Ex and operating-system commands. This issue is fixed in version 9.2.0840.
A flaw in Vim's netrw plugin fails to sanitize special characters in directory paths when creating GUI menu entries. Browsing or bookmarking a maliciously crafted path in GUI Vim allows attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands as the running user.
Отчет
This Important vulnerability in Vim's netrw plugin allows for arbitrary command execution in GUI Vim. By crafting a malicious directory path, an attacker could exploit improper neutralization of special characters when the path is browsed or bookmarked, leading to command injection. This issue specifically impacts GUI installations and requires user interaction.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, avoid browsing or bookmarking untrusted or maliciously crafted directory paths within GUI Vim. Users should exercise caution when interacting with netrw menu entries derived from external or untrusted sources.
