An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that Vim was using freed memory when dealing with regular expressions through its old regular expression engine. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted file, an attacker could crash the application, leading to a denial of service, or possibly achieve code execution. It was discovered that Vim was not properly performing checks on name of lambda functions. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue affected only Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. It was discovered that Vim was incorrectly performing bounds checks when processing invalid commands with composing characters in Ex mode. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that Vim was not properly processing latin1 data when issuing Ex commands. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that Vim was not properly performing memory management when dealing with invalid regular expression patterns in buffers. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that Vim was not properly processing invalid bytes when performing spell check operations. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code.
