Vim < 9.2.0662 Stack Out-of-Bounds Write (GHSA-qm9w-fmpj-879h)

The version of Vim installed on the remote host is prior to 9.2.0662. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability. - The dumpprefixes function in src/spell.c walks a spell-file prefix trie iteratively with a depth counter while dumping the prefixes that apply to a word. The counter is bounded...

Vim < 9.2.0671 Out-of-Bounds Read (GHSA-c4j9-wr9j-4486)

The version of Vim installed on the remote host is prior to 9.2.0671. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability. - When Vim opens a file encrypted with the VimCrypt04! or VimCrypt05! method xchacha20poly1305, requires the +sodium feature whose body is shorter than a single libsodium...

Vim < 9.2.0663 Code Injection (GHSA-vhh8-v6wx-hjjh)

The version of Vim installed on the remote host is prior to 9.2.0663. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability. - A Vimscript code injection vulnerability exists in s:NetrwLocalRmFile in the netrw plugin runtime/pack/dist/opt/netrw/autoload/netrw.vim when deleting a local file from the...

Vim 9.1.1784 < 9.2.0678 Command Injection (GHSA-x5fg-h5w9-9frf)

The version of Vim installed on the remote host is between 9.1.1784 and 9.2.0678 exclusive. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability. - When the bundled zip plugin autoload/zip.vim falls back to PowerShell to browse, read, extract, update or delete entries in a zip archive, it builds the...

Vim 9.2.0320 < 9.2.0679 Out-of-Bounds Read (GHSA-ww8h-47xp-hp4w)

The version of Vim installed on the remote host is between 9.2.0320 and 9.2.0679 exclusive. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability. - A crafted undo or swap file can store a virtual-text property whose offset and length point outside the line's property data. When Vim restores or displays...

Vim < 9.2.0653 Stack Out-of-Bounds Write (GHSA-wgh4-64f7-q3jq)

The version of Vim installed on the remote host is prior to 9.2.0653. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability. - The treecountwords 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 onl...

vim: command injection when decompressing .tgz archives

A flaw was found in Vim. When decompressing .tgz archives, the Vimuntar function builds shell commands using shellescape without the special flag. This allows a specially crafted archive filename to trigger Vim cmdline-special expansion and execute arbitrary commands in the context of the current...

Important: Red Hat Security Advisory: vim security update

An update for vim is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.8 Update Services for SAP Solutions and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.8 Telecommunications Update Service. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System...

vim: arbitrary command execution via modeline sandbox bypass

A flaw was found in Vim. A modeline is used to set specific editor options directly from a text file. However, the complete, guitabtooltip, printheader options and the mapset function lack proper security checks, allowing an attacker to bypass restrictions and cause arbitrary OS command execution...

vim: zip.vim: Vim zip.vim plugin: Arbitrary file overwrite via path traversal bypass

A flaw was found in Vim's zip.vim plugin. A local user could be tricked into opening a specially crafted zip archive, which would allow a path traversal bypass. This vulnerability enables an attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the system, potentially leading to data integrity issues or furth...

vim: Vim: Command injection allows arbitrary code execution via malicious tag files

A flaw was found in Vim, an open-source command-line text editor. This command injection vulnerability occurs during tag file processing. A local user could craft a malicious tags file containing backtick syntax in the filename field. When Vim resolves a tag from this file, it executes the embedd...

CVE-2026-57455

A memory corruption flaw in Vim allows an attacker to cause a Denial of Service DoS. When a SOFO-based spell language is active, providing an excessively long word to the spell checker triggers a stack out-of-bounds write in the spellsoundfoldsofo function, causing the editor to crash. Mitigation...

CVE-2026-57452

A flaw was found in Vim, an open source command-line text editor. When opening a specially crafted encrypted file using the VimCrypt04! or VimCrypt05! methods, an attacker could trigger an unsigned length calculation error. This issue leads to an out-of-bounds read, causing Vim to crash and...
