CentOS Errata and Security Advisory CESA-2005:745-01

VIM (VIsual editor iMproved) is a version of the vi editor.

A bug was found in the way VIM processes modelines. If a user with
modelines enabled opens a text file with a carefully crafted modeline,
arbitrary commands may be executed as the user running VIM. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name CAN-2005-2368
to this issue.

Users of VIM are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve this issue.

https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2005-August/074248.html

Affected packages:
