"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TSSA-2026:0674 advisory.
Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:
CVE-2026-55693:
Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to 9.2.0653, the tree_count_words() function in
src/spellfile.c fills in the word-count fields of a spell-file word trie by walking it iteratively with a
depth counter. The counter is bounded only by the trie structure itself; it is never checked against the
size of the fixed MAXWLEN-element stack arrays it indexes (arridx[], curi[], wordcount[]). A crafted
.spl/.sug file pair, loaded when the user invokes spell suggestion, can drive the descent arbitrarily
deep, so the function writes past the end of those arrays. This is a stack out-of-bounds write that
corrupts the call frame and crashes the editor. This vulnerability is fixed in 9.2.0653.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent 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.");
