Title:	Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2022-269-02)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'vim' package(s) announced via the SSA:2022-269-02 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'vim' package(s) announced via the SSA:2022-269-02 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: New vim packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to fix a security issue. Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/vim-9.0.0594-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded. Fixed stack-based buffer overflow. Thanks to marav for the heads-up. In addition, Mig21 pointed out an issue where the defaults.vim file might need to be edited for some purposes as its contents will override the settings in the system-wide vimrc. Usually this file is replaced whenever vim is upgraded, which in those situations would be inconvenient for the admin. So, I've added support for a file named defaults.vim.custom which (if it exists) will be used instead of the defaults.vim file shipped in the packages and will persist through upgrades. For more information, see: [link moved to references] (* Security fix *) patches/packages/vim-gvim-9.0.0594-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded. +--------------------------+ Affected Software/OS: 'vim' package(s) on Slackware 15.0, Slackware current. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 7.2 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
