Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-01-20 23:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 08:57

Severity

4.2 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L
5.5 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H

Summary

Vim is an open source, command line text editor. A segmentation fault was found in Vim before 9.1.1043. In silent Ex mode (-s -e), Vim typically doesn't show a screen and just operates silently in batch mode. However, it is still possible to trigger the function that handles the scrolling of a gui version of Vim by feeding some binary characters to Vim. The function that handles the scrolling however may be triggering a redraw, which will access the ScreenLines pointer, even so this variable hasn't been allocated (since there is no screen). This vulnerability is fixed in 9.1.1043.
