It was discovered that Vim incorrectly handled memory when opening and

a specially crafted file, an attacker could crash the application, leading to
a denial of service, or possibly achieve code execution with user privileges.

It was discovered that Vim incorrectly handled memory when opening and editing
certain files. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted file,
an attacker could crash the application, leading to a denial of service, or
possibly achieve code execution with user privileges. (CVE-2021-3984,

specially crafted file, an attacker could crash the application, leading to a
denial of service, or possibly achieve code execution with user privileges.
(CVE-2021-4192)

It was discovered that Vim was incorrectly performing read and write
operations when in visual block mode, going beyond the end of a line and
causing a heap buffer overflow. If a user were tricked into opening a
specially crafted file, an attacker could crash the application, leading to a
denial of service, or possibly achieve code execution with user privileges.
(CVE-2022-0261, CVE-2022-0318)

It was discovered that Vim was using freed memory when dealing with regular
expressions through its old regular expression engine. If a user were tricked
into opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could crash the application,
leading to a denial of service, or possibly achieve code execution with user
privileges. (CVE-2022-1154)");
