Greetings,
A Heap-based Buffer Overflow issue was discovered in Vim.
The POC file is reduced to the absolute minimum to reproduce the problem.
Please see sanitizer output and the “trimmed” POC file link below.
System info
OS version : Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS + Clang 12 with ASan
Vim Version : master(2446ec9) - Tue Oct 26 12:00:01 2021 +0100
Steps to reproduce:
git clone https://github.com/vim/vim
LD=lld-12 AS=llvm-as-12 AR=llvm-ar-12 RANLIB=llvm-ranlib-12 CC=clang-12 CXX=clang++-12 CFLAGS="-fsanitize=address" CXXFLAGS="-fsanitize=address" LDFLAGS="-ldl -fsanitize=address" ./configure --with-features=huge --enable-gui=none && make
./vim -u NONE -X -Z -e -s -S POC -c :qa!
