CVE-2023-48233

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Vim versions prior to 9.0.2108

Description The issue is related to the use of large values for the :s command, which can exceed the capacity of a signed long variable, potentially leading to a crash. The impact is considered low, and user interaction is required for exploitation. There are no known instances of this issue being exploited in real-world attacks.

Recommendations For versions prior to 9.0.2108, upgrade to release version 9.0.2108 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of large values for the :s command until a patch is applied.
