The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5775-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Vim uses freed memory in recurisve substitution of specially crafted patterns. An     attacker could possbly use this to crash Vim and cause denial of service. (CVE-2022-2345)

    It was discovered that Vim makes illegal memory calls when patterns start with an illegal byte. An     attacker could possibly use this to crash Vim, access or modify memory, or execute arbitrary commands.
    (CVE-2022-2581)

    It was discovered that Vim could be made to crash when parsing invalid line numbers. An attacker could     possbly use this to crash Vim and cause denial of service. (CVE-2022-3099)

    It was discovered that Vim uses freed memory when autocmd changes a mark. An attacker could possbly use     this to crash Vim and cause denial of service. (CVE-2022-3256)

    It was discovered the Vim uses an incorrect array index when window width is negative. A local attacker     could possbly use this to crash Vim and cause denial of service. (CVE-2022-3324)

    It was discoverd that certain buffers could be sent to the wrong window. An attacker with local access     could use this to send messages to the wrong window. (CVE-2022-3591)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS-2023-1716 advisory.

    A heap buffer overflow vulnerability was found in vim's ins_compl_infercase_gettext() function of the     src/insexpand.c file. This flaw occurs when vim tries to access uninitialized memory when completing a     long line. This flaw allows an attacker to trick a user into opening a specially crafted file, triggering     a heap-based buffer overflow that causes an application to crash, possibly executing code and corrupting     memory. (CVE-2022-2522)

    Heap-based Buffer Overflow in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 9.0.0220. (CVE-2022-2849)

    Use After Free in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 9.0.0221. (CVE-2022-2862)

    A heap use-after-free vulnerability was found in vim's qf_fill_buffer() function of the src/quickfix.c     file. The issue occurs because vim uses freed memory when recursively using 'quickfixtextfunc.' This flaw     allows an attacker to trick a user into opening a specially crafted file, triggering a heap use-after-free     that causes an application to crash, possibly executing code and corrupting memory. (CVE-2022-2982)

    A heap use-after-free vulnerability was found in vim's get_next_valid_entry() function of the     src/quickfix.c file. The issue occurs because vim is using freed memory when the location list is changed     in autocmd. This flaw allows an attacker to trick a user into opening a specially crafted file, triggering     a heap use-after-free that causes an application to crash, possibly executing code and corrupting memory.
    (CVE-2022-3016)

    Use After Free in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 9.0.0530. (CVE-2022-3256)

    Out-of-bounds Write in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 9.0.1145. (CVE-2023-0054)

    A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability was found in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 9.0.1376 in     Vim's utf_ptr2char() function of the src/mbyte.c file. This flaw occurs because there is access to invalid     memory with put in visual block mode. An attacker can trick a user into opening a specially crafted file,     triggering an out-of-bounds read that causes an application to crash, leading to a denial of service.
    (CVE-2023-1170)

    Incorrect Calculation of Buffer Size in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 9.0.1378. (CVE-2023-1175)
