{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-45130","details":"Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to version 9.2.0450, a heap buffer overflow exists in read_compound() in src/spellfile.c when loading a crafted spell file (.spl) with UTF-8 encoding active. An attacker-controlled length field in the spell file's compound section overflows a 32-bit signed integer multiplication, causing a small buffer to be allocated for a write loop that runs many iterations, overflowing the heap. Because the 'spelllang' option can be set from a modeline, a text file modeline can trigger spell file loading if a malicious .spl file has been planted on the runtimepath. This issue has been patched in version 9.2.0450.","modified":"2026-09-14T17:03:42.100014667Z","published":"2026-05-08T23:16:40.053Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-45130"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-45130"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"vim","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/vim?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2:9.0.1378-2","2:9.0.1378-2+deb12u1","2:9.0.1378-2+deb12u2","2:9.0.1658-1","2:9.0.1672-1","2:9.0.1894-1","2:9.0.2018-1","2:9.0.2087-1","2:9.0.2103-1","2:9.0.2116-1","2:9.0.2189-1","2:9.1.0-1","2:9.1.0016-1","2:9.1.0199-1","2:9.1.0374-1","2:9.1.0377-1","2:9.1.0496-1","2:9.1.0698-1","2:9.1.0709-1","2:9.1.0709-2","2:9.1.0777-1","2:9.1.0861-1","2:9.1.0967-1","2:9.1.0967-2","2:9.1.1113-1","2:9.1.1230-1","2:9.1.1230-2","2:9.1.1385-1","2:9.1.1766-1","2:9.1.1829-1","2:9.1.1846-1","2:9.1.1882-1","2:9.1.2103-1","2:9.1.2141-1","2:9.2.0119-1","2:9.2.0136-1","2:9.2.0218-1","2:9.2.0315-1","2:9.2.0338-1","2:9.2.0355-1","2:9.2.0428-1","2:9.2.0461-1","2:9.2.0524-1","2:9.2.0782-1","2:9.2.0858-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-45130.json"}},{"package":{"name":"vim","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/vim?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["2:9.1.1230-2","2:9.1.1385-1","2:9.1.1766-1","2:9.1.1829-1","2:9.1.1846-1","2:9.1.1882-1","2:9.1.2103-1","2:9.1.2141-1","2:9.2.0119-1","2:9.2.0136-1","2:9.2.0218-1","2:9.2.0315-1","2:9.2.0338-1","2:9.2.0355-1","2:9.2.0428-1","2:9.2.0461-1","2:9.2.0524-1","2:9.2.0782-1","2:9.2.0858-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-45130.json"}},{"package":{"name":"vim","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/vim?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2:9.2.0461-1"}]}],"versions":["2:9.1.1230-2","2:9.1.1385-1","2:9.1.1766-1","2:9.1.1829-1","2:9.1.1846-1","2:9.1.1882-1","2:9.1.2103-1","2:9.1.2141-1","2:9.2.0119-1","2:9.2.0136-1","2:9.2.0218-1","2:9.2.0315-1","2:9.2.0338-1","2:9.2.0355-1","2:9.2.0428-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-45130.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
