Google: app-editors/vim, app-editors/vim-core: security update to 17800.519.47

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 454802

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Vim is an open source, command line text editor. A segmentation fault was found in Vim before 9.1.1043. In
silent Ex mode (-s -e), Vim typically doesn't show a screen and just operates silently in batch mode.
However, it is still possible to trigger the function that handles the scrolling of a gui version of Vim
by feeding some binary characters to Vim. The function that handles the scrolling 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. (CVE-2025-24014)

Solution

Update the app-editors/vim library and its related packages to version 17800.519.47 or later.
