Several vulnerabilities have been found in vim, an enhanced vi editor. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: Jan Minar discovered that vim did not properly sanitise inputs before invoking the execute or system functions inside vim scripts. This could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. Jan Minar discovered that the tar plugin of vim did not properly sanitise the filenames in the tar archive or the name of the archive file itself, making it prone to arbitrary code execution. Jan Minar discovered that the zip plugin of vim did not properly sanitise the filenames in the zip archive or the name of the archive file itself, making it prone to arbitrary code execution. Jan Minar discovered that the netrw plugin of vim did not properly sanitise the filenames or directory names it is given. This could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. Ben Schmidt discovered that vim did not properly escape characters when performing keyword or tag lookups. This could lead to the execution of arbitrary code.
