Vim is a cross-platform text editor, and a security vulnerability exists in versions prior to Vim 9.0.0321, which stems from a confusion in the instruction responsible for freeing memory in the qf_buf_add_line( ) function. An attacker could use this vulnerability to cause a crash, arbitrary code execution, etc.
