GHSA-2p55-mr3x-rqxj PUBLISHED CVSS 8.600000381469727 HIGH

Record from GitHub Advisory Database · Published May 1, 2022

src/configure.in in Vim 5.0 through 7.1, when used for a build with Python support, does not ensure that the Makefile-conf temporary file has the intended ownership and permissions, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code by modifying this file during a time window, or by creating it ahead of time with permissions that prevent its modification by configure.
