Vim (Vi IMproved) is an updated and improved version of the vi editor.
Security Fix(es):
* vim: users can execute arbitrary OS commands via scripting interfaces in the rvim restricted mode (CVE-2019-20807)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
Additional Changes:
For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.3 Release Notes linked from the References section.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
