Synopsis

Description

The remote SUSE Linux SLED15 / SLED_SAP15 / SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2022:2102-1 advisory.

- fileio.c in Vim prior to 8.0.1263 sets the group ownership of a .swp file to the editor's primary group (which may be different from the group ownership of the original file), which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by leveraging an applicable group membership, as demonstrated by /etc/shadow owned by root:shadow mode 0640, but /etc/.shadow.swp owned by root:users mode 0640, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-1000382. (CVE-2017-17087)

- vim is vulnerable to Heap-based Buffer Overflow (CVE-2021-3778, CVE-2021-3872, CVE-2021-3875, CVE-2021-3903, CVE-2021-3927, CVE-2021-3968, CVE-2021-3973, CVE-2021-3984, CVE-2021-4019, CVE-2021-4136, CVE-2022-0213)

- vim is vulnerable to Use After Free (CVE-2021-3796, CVE-2021-3974, CVE-2021-4069, CVE-2021-4192)

- vim is vulnerable to Use of Uninitialized Variable (CVE-2021-3928)

- vim is vulnerable to Out-of-bounds Read (CVE-2021-4166, CVE-2021-4193, CVE-2022-0128)

- Heap-based Buffer Overflow in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2. (CVE-2022-0261, CVE-2022-0359, CVE-2022-0361, CVE-2022-0407)

- Heap-based Buffer Overflow in vim/vim prior to 8.2. (CVE-2022-0318)

- global heap buffer overflow in skip_range in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2.4763. This vulnerability is capable of crashing software, Bypass Protection Mechanism, Modify Memory, and possible remote execution (CVE-2022-1381)

- Use of Out-of-range Pointer Offset in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2.4774. (CVE-2022-1420)

- Use after free in append_command in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2.4895. This vulnerability is capable of crashing software, Bypass Protection Mechanism, Modify Memory, and possible remote execution (CVE-2022-1616)

- Heap-based Buffer Overflow in function cmdline_erase_chars in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2.4899.
This vulnerabilities are capable of crashing software, modify memory, and possible remote execution (CVE-2022-1619)

- NULL Pointer Dereference in function vim_regexec_string at regexp.c:2729 in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2.4901. NULL Pointer Dereference in function vim_regexec_string at regexp.c:2729 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted input. (CVE-2022-1620)

- Heap-based Buffer Overflow in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2.4968. (CVE-2022-1733)

- Out-of-bounds Read in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2. (CVE-2022-1851)

- Out-of-bounds Write in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2. (CVE-2022-1897)

- Buffer Over-read in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2. (CVE-2022-1927)
