NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream vim-common package and not the vim-common package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to 9.2.0316, a command injection vulnerability in Vim's netbeans interface allows a malicious netbeans server to execute arbitrary Ex commands when Vim connects to it, via unsanitized strings in the defineAnnoType and specialKeys protocol messages. This vulnerability is fixed in 9.2.0316.
