Name: vim
CVEs: CVE-2025-1215, CVE-2025-22134, CVE-2025-24014, GHSA-63p5-mwg2-787v
CVSSs: 2.8, 4.2, 4.2, 4.2
Action Needed: update to >= 9.1.1115

Summary:

  • CVE-2025-1215: A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in vim up to 9.1.1096. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file src/main.c. The manipulation of the argument --log leads to memory corruption. It is possible to launch the attack on the local host. Upgrading to version 9.1.1097 is able to address this issue. The patch is identified as c5654b84480822817bb7b69ebc97c174c91185e9. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.
  • CVE-2025-22134: A heap-buffer-overflow with visual mode was found in Vim < 9.1.1003
  • CVE-2025-24014: crolling however may be triggering a redraw, which will access the ScreenLines pointer, even so this variable hasn't been allocated (since there is no screen). This vulnerability is fixed in 9.1.1043.
  • GHSA-63p5-mwg2-787v: Vim allows to redirect screen messages using the :redir ex command to
    register, variables and files. It also allows to show the contents of registers using the :registers or :display ex command. When redirecting the output of :display to a register, Vim will free the register content before storing the new content in the register. Now when redirecting the :display command to a register that is being displayed, Vim will free the content while shortly afterwards trying to access it, which leads to a use-after-free. Vim pre 9.1.1115 checks in the ex_display() function, that it does not try to redirect to a register while displaying this register at the same time. However this check is not complete, and so Vim does not check the + and * registers (which typically donate the X11/clipboard registers, and when a clipboard connection is not possible will fall back to use register 0 instead. In Patch 9.1.1115 Vim will therefore skip outputting to register zero when trying to redirect to the clipboard registers * or +.
