An integer overflow at an unserialize_uep memory allocation site would occur for vim before patch 8.0.0378, if it does not properly validate values for tree length when reading a corrupted undo file, which may lead to resultant buffer overflows.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES12 / SLES_SAP12 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:4619-1 advisory.

  - Untrusted search path vulnerability in src/if_python.c in the Python interface in Vim before 7.2.045     allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a Trojan horse Python file in the current working     directory, related to a vulnerability in the PySys_SetArgv function (CVE-2008-5983), as demonstrated by an     erroneous search path for plugin/bike.vim in bicyclerepair. (CVE-2009-0316)

  - vim before patch 8.0.0056 does not properly validate values for the 'filetype', 'syntax' and 'keymap'     options, which may result in the execution of arbitrary code if a file with a specially crafted modeline     is opened. (CVE-2016-1248)

  - fileio.c in Vim prior to 8.0.1263 sets the group ownership of a .swp file to the editor's primary group     (which may be different from the group ownership of the original file), which allows local users to obtain     sensitive information by leveraging an applicable group membership, as demonstrated by /etc/shadow owned     by root:shadow mode 0640, but /etc/.shadow.swp owned by root:users mode 0640, a different vulnerability     than CVE-2017-1000382. (CVE-2017-17087)

  - vim before patch 8.0.0322 does not properly validate values for tree length when handling a spell file,     which may result in an integer overflow at a memory allocation site and a resultant buffer overflow.
    (CVE-2017-5953)

  - An integer overflow at a u_read_undo memory allocation site would occur for vim before patch 8.0.0377, if     it does not properly validate values for tree length when reading a corrupted undo file, which may lead to     resultant buffer overflows. (CVE-2017-6349)

  - An integer overflow at an unserialize_uep memory allocation site would occur for vim before patch     8.0.0378, if it does not properly validate values for tree length when reading a corrupted undo file,     which may lead to resultant buffer overflows. (CVE-2017-6350)

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201706-26 (Vim, gVim: Remote execution of arbitrary code)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Vim and gVim. Please       review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted spell       file using Vim or gVim, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code       with the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way vim handled tree length values when reading an undo file. This bug could result in vim crashing when trying to process corrupted undo files. (CVE-2017-6350)

An integer overflow flaw was found in the way vim handled undo files.
This bug could result in vim crashing when trying to process corrupted undo files.(CVE-2017-6349)

vim before patch 8.0.0322 does not properly validate values for tree length when handling a spell file, which may result in an integer overflow at a memory allocation site and a resultant buffer overflow.
(CVE-2017-5953)

Brief introduction 

CVE-2017-6349

An integer overflow at a u_read_undo memory allocation site would occur for vim before patch 8.0.0377, if it does not properly validate values for tree length when reading a corrupted undo file, which may lead to resultant buffer overflows.

CVE-2017-6350

An integer overflow at an unserialize_uep memory allocation site would occur for vim before patch 8.0.0378, if it does not properly validate values for tree length when reading a corrupted undo file, which may lead to resultant buffer overflows.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 2:7.3.547-7+deb7u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your vim packages.
