CVE-2022-1420

A vulnerability was found in Vim. The issue occurs when using a number in a string for the lambda name, triggering an out-of-range pointer offset vulnerability. This flaw allows an attacker to trick a user into opening a crafted script containing an argument as a number and then using it as a string pointer to access any memory location, causing an application to crash and possibly access some memory.

Mitigation

Untrusted vim scripts with -s [scriptin] are not recommended to run.
