Description

Vim is an open source command line text editor. If the count after the :s command is larger than what fits into a (signed) long variable, abort with e_value_too_large. Impact is low, user interaction is required and a crash may not even happen in all situations. This issue has been addressed in commit `ac6378773` which has been included in release version 9.0.2108. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

Solution(s)

  • suse-upgrade-gvim
  • suse-upgrade-vim
  • suse-upgrade-vim-data
  • suse-upgrade-vim-data-common
