A vim security update has been released for Slackware Linux 15.0 and -current.
slackware-security: vim (SSA:2022-237-01)
[slackware-security] vim (SSA:2022-237-01)
New vim packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to
fix security issues.
Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/vim-9.0.0270-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded.
We're just going to move to vim-9 instead of continuing to backport patches
to the vim-8 branch. Most users will be better served by this.
Fixed use after free and null pointer dereference.
Thanks to marav for the heads-up.
