3) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48232)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow when calculating the line offset for overlong lines and smooth scrolling is enabled and the cpo-settings include the 'n' flag. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file, trigger an integer overflow and crash the application.4) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48233)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow if the count after the :s command is larger than what fits into a (signed) long variable. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file, trigger an integer overflow and crash the application.5) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48234)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow when using the z= command. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file, trigger an integer overflow and crash the application.6) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48235)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow when parsing relative ex addresses. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file, trigger an integer overflow and crash the application.7) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48236)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow when using the z= command. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file, trigger an integer overflow and crash the application.
8) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48237)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow when shifting lines in operator pending mode. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file, trigger an integer overflow and crash the application.
9) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-48706)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the ex_substitute() function in src/charset.c when executing the ":s" command. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted file, trigger a use-after-free error and crash the application.
