{"id":"AZL-95976","summary":"CVE-2026-73071 affecting package vim 9.2.0782-1","details":"Vim is an open source, command line text editor. From 9.2.0511 until 9.2.0844, json_decode_item() in src/json.c can retain a stale pointer after json_decode_string() invokes channel_fill() to refill and free the current buffer, causing the error path to read freed memory instead of reader-\u003ejs_buf + reader-\u003ejs_used when an invalid JSON string spans buffers. This issue is fixed in version 9.2.0844.","modified":"2026-09-02T06:51:55Z","published":"2026-08-11T16:17:38Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-73071"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-73071"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"vim","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/vim"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"9.2.0782-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-95976.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
