"The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare
ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1778259521 advisory.
- NULL Pointer Dereference in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 9.0.0552. (CVE-2022-3278)
- Floating Point Comparison with Incorrect Operator in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 9.0.0804.
(CVE-2022-4293)
- Vim is an open source command line text editor. When closing a window, vim may try to access already freed
window structure. Exploitation beyond crashing the application has not been shown to be viable. This issue
has been addressed in commit `25aabc2b` which has been included in release version 9.0.2106. Users are
advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability. (CVE-2023-48231)
- Vim is an open source command line text editor. When getting the count for a normal mode z command, it may
overflow for large counts given. Impact is low, user interaction is required and a crash may not even
happen in all situations. This issue has been addressed in commit `58f9befca1` which has been included in
release version 9.0.2109. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this
vulnerability. (CVE-2023-48234)
- Vim is an open source command line text editor. When parsing relative ex addresses one may unintentionally
cause an overflow. Ironically this happens in the existing overflow check, because the line number becomes
negative and LONG_MAX - lnum will cause the overflow. Impact is low, user interaction is required and a
crash may not even happen in all situations. This issue has been addressed in commit `060623e` which has
been included in release version 9.0.2110. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds
for this vulnerability. (CVE-2023-48235)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
