Echo: vim: security update to 2:9.2.0218-1

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 455418

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. From 9.1.0011 to before 9.2.0137, Vim's NFA regex
 compiler, when encountering a collection containing a combining character as the endpoint of a character
 range (e.g. [0-0\u05bb]), incorrectly emits the composing bytes of that character as separate NFA states.
 This corrupts the NFA postfix stack, resulting in NFA_START_COLL having a NULL out1 pointer. When
 nfa_max_width() subsequently traverses the compiled NFA to estimate match width for the look-behind
 assertion, it dereferences state->out1->out without a NULL check, causing a segmentation fault. This
 vulnerability is fixed in 9.2.0137. (CVE-2026-32249)

Solution

Update the vim library and its related packages to version 2:9.2.0218-1 or later.
