RHSA-2026:57614 PUBLISHED CVSS 5.800000190734863 MEDIUM

Record from redhat · Published August 20, 2026

A flaw was found in Vim. A modeline is used to set specific editor options directly from a text file. However, the `complete`, `guitabtooltip`, `printheader` options and the `mapset` function lack proper security checks, allowing an attacker to bypass restrictions and cause arbitrary OS command execution.
