Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to version 9.2.0450, a heap buffer overflow exists in read_compound() in src/spellfile.c when loading a crafted spell file (.spl) with UTF-8 encoding active. An attacker-controlled length field in the spell file's compound section overflows a 32-bit signed integer multiplication, causing a small buffer to be allocated for a write loop that runs many iterations, overflowing the heap. Because the 'spelllang' option can be set from a modeline, a text file modeline can trigger spell file loading if a malicious .spl file has been planted on the runtimepath. This issue has been patched in version 9.2.0450.

Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to version 9.2.0435, an OS command injection vulnerability exists in Vim's :find command-line completion. When the path option contains backtick-enclosed shell commands, those commands are executed during file name completion. Because the path option lacks the P_SECURE flag, it can be set from a modeline, allowing an attacker who controls the contents of a file to execute arbitrary shell commands when the user opens that file in Vim and triggers :find completion. This issue has been patched in version 9.2.0435.

Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to version 9.2.0383, an OS command injection vulnerability exists in the netrw standard plugin bundled with Vim. By inducing a user to open a crafted URL (e.g., using the sftp:// or file:// protocol handlers), an attacker can execute arbitrary shell commands with the privileges of the Vim process. This issue has been patched in version 9.2.0383.

Linux · Linux linux kernel

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: mcp23s08: Disable all pin interrupts during probe A chip being probed may have the interrupt-on-change feature enabled on some of its pins, for example after a reboot. This can cause the chip to generate interrupts for pins that don't have a registered nested handler, which leads to a kernel crash such as below: [ 7.928897] Unable to handle kernel read from unreadable memory at virtual address 00000000000000ac [ 7.932314] Mem abort info: [ 7.935081] ESR = 0x0000000096000004 [ 7.938808] EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits [ 7.944094] SET = 0, FnV = 0 [ 7.947127] EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 [ 7.950247] FSC = 0x04: level 0 translation fault [ 7.955101] Data abort info: [ 7.957961] ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000004, ISS2 = 0x00000000 [ 7.963421] CM = 0, WnR = 0, TnD = 0, TagAccess = 0 [ 7.968447] GCS = 0, Overlay = 0, DirtyBit = 0, Xs = 0 [ 7.973734] user pgtable: 4k pages, 48-bit VAs, pgdp=00000000089b7000 [ 7.980148] [00000000000000ac] pgd=0000000000000000, p4d=0000000000000000 [ 7.986913] Internal error: Oops: 0000000096000004 [#1] SMP [ 7.992545] Modules linked in: [ 8.073678] CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 81 Comm: irq/18-4-0025 Not tainted 7.0.0-rc6-gd2b5a1f931c8-dirty #199 [ 8.073689] Hardware name: Khadas VIM3 (DT) [ 8.073692] pstate: 604000c5 (nZCv daIF +PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) [ 8.094639] pc : _raw_spin_lock_irq+0x40/0x80 [ 8.098970] lr : handle_nested_irq+0x2c/0x168 [ 8.098979] sp : ffff800082b2bd20 [ 8.106599] x29: ffff800082b2bd20 x28: ffff800080107920 x27: ffff800080104d88 [ 8.106611] x26: ffff000003298080 x25: 0000000000000001 x24: 000000000000ff00 [ 8.113707] x23: 0000000000000001 x22: 0000000000000000 x21: 000000000000000e [ 8.120850] x20: 0000000000000000 x19: 00000000000000ac x18: 0000000000000000 [ 8.135046] x17: 0000000000000000 x16: 0000000000000000 x15: 0000000000000000 [ 8.135062] x14: ffff800081567ea8 x13: ffffffffffffffff x12: 0000000000000000 [ 8.135070] x11: 00000000000000c0 x10: 0000000000000b60 x9 : ffff800080109e0c [ 8.135078] x8 : 1fffe0000069dbc1 x7 : 0000000000000001 x6 : ffff0000034ede00 [ 8.135086] x5 : 0000000000000000 x4 : ffff0000034ede08 x3 : 0000000000000001 [ 8.163460] x2 : 0000000000000000 x1 : 0000000000000001 x0 : 00000000000000ac [ 8.170560] Call trace: [ 8.180094] _raw_spin_lock_irq+0x40/0x80 (P) [ 8.184443] mcp23s08_irq+0x248/0x358 [ 8.184462] irq_thread_fn+0x34/0xb8 [ 8.184470] irq_thread+0x1a4/0x310 [ 8.195093] kthread+0x13c/0x150 [ 8.198309] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 [ 8.201850] Code: d65f03c0 d2800002 52800023 f9800011 (885ffc01) [ 8.207931] ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- This issue has always been present, but has been latent until commit "f9f4fda15e72" ("pinctrl: mcp23s08: init reg_defaults from HW at probe and switch cache type"), which correctly removed reg_defaults from the regmap and as a side effect changed the behavior of the interrupt handler so that the real value of the MCP_GPINTEN register is now being read from the chip instead of using a bogus 0 default value; a non-zero value for this register can trigger the invocation of a nested handler which may not exist (yet). Fix this issue by disabling all pin interrupts during initialization.
