Description
The
runtime/autoload/vimball.vim file allows a crafted vimball member named .VimballRecord to overwrite the installation record with attacker-chosen commands. When the vimball#RmVimball() function later processes the matching record entry, the stored Ex commands, including operating-system commands invoked through :!, execute with the privileges of the user running Vim.Recommendations
Update to version 9.2.0847.
