NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream vim-data-common package and not the vim-data-common package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.4 relevant fixed versions and status.

Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to version 9.2.0276, a modeline sandbox bypass in Vim allows arbitrary OS command execution when a user opens a crafted file. The complete, guitabtooltip and printheader options are missing the P_MLE flag, allowing a modeline to be executed. Additionally, the mapset() function lacks a check_secure() call, allowing it to be abused from sandboxed expressions. Commit 9.2.0276 fixes the issue.
