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 release version 9.0.2109.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
