The VI Improved editor (vim) received bugfixes for some code execution problems.

  - Arbitrary code execution in vim helper plugins     filetype.vim, zipplugin, xpm.vim, gzip_vim, and netrw     were fixed. (CVE-2008-2712)

  - Arbitrary code execution when pressing K, ctrl-] or g]     depending on the text under the cursor. (CVE-2008-4101)

  - The netrw plugin sent credentials to all servers.
    (CVE-2008-4677)

Several vulnerabilities were found in the vim editor :

A number of input sanitization flaws were found in various vim system functions. If a user were to open a specially crafted file, it would be possible to execute arbitrary code as the user running vim (CVE-2008-2712).

Ulf H&Atilde;&curren;rnhammar of Secunia Research found a format string flaw in vim's help tags processor. If a user were tricked into executing the helptags command on malicious data, it could result in the execution of arbitrary code as the user running vim (CVE-2008-2953).

A flaw was found in how tar.vim handled TAR archive browsing. If a user were to open a special TAR archive using the plugin, it could result in the execution of arbitrary code as the user running vim (CVE-2008-3074).

A flaw was found in how zip.vim handled ZIP archive browsing. If a user were to open a special ZIP archive using the plugin, it could result in the execution of arbitrary code as the user running vim (CVE-2008-3075).

A number of security flaws were found in netrw.vim, the vim plugin that provides the ability to read and write files over the network. If a user opened a specially crafted file or directory with the netrw plugin, it could result in the execution of arbitrary code as the user running vim (CVE-2008-3076).

A number of input validation flaws were found in vim's keyword and tag handling. If vim looked up a document's maliciously crafted tag or keyword, it was possible to execute arbitary code as the user running vim (CVE-2008-4101).

A vulnerability was found in certain versions of netrw.vim where it would send FTP credentials stored for an FTP session to subsequent FTP sessions to servers on different hosts, exposing FTP credentials to remote hosts (CVE-2008-4677).

This update provides vim 7.2 (patchlevel 65) which corrects all of these issues and introduces a number of new features and bug fixes.

Update :

The previous vim update incorrectly introduced a requirement on libruby and also conflicted with a file from the git-core package (in contribs). These issues have been corrected with these updated packages.

The VI Improved editor (vim) was updated to version 7.2.108 to fix various security problems and other bugs.

CVE-2008-4677: The netrw plugin sent credentials to all servers.
