There is no fixed version for RHEL:6 vim-enhanced.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream vim-enhanced package and not the vim-enhanced package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

vim before patch 8.0.0322 does not properly validate values for tree length when handling a spell file, which may result in an integer overflow at a memory allocation site and a resultant buffer overflow.
