CVE-2022-3520

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Vim versions prior to 9.0.0765

Description The issue is related to a heap-based buffer overflow in the Vim text editor, specifically in the inc function. This allows an attacker to access confidential data, compromise its integrity, and cause a denial of service.

Recommendations For versions prior to 9.0.0765, update to version 9.0.0765 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive data and functions within Vim until the update can be applied.
