vim is vulnerable to Untrusted Search Path. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by tricking a user into opening a malicious file or by sending a specially crafted HTTP request to a vulnerable Vim server due to the way Vim searches for files. Once the vulnerability is exploited, the attacker could take control of the user’s system and steal data, install malware, or disrupt service.
