Prior to 9.2.0839, the runtime/ftplugin/sh.vim, runtime/ftplugin/zsh.vim, and runtime/ftplugin/ps1.vim filetype plugins pass attacker-controlled Visual-mode selections from K through keywordprg commands without safely separating shell arguments. fnameescape() and PATH_ESC_CHARS do not neutralize shell metacharacters before ShKeywordPrg, ZshKeywordPrg, or GetHelp invokes bash, zsh, or PowerShell, allowing arbitrary operating-system commands to execute with the privileges of the user running Vim. This issue is fixed in version 9.2.0839.","published":"2026-08-11T16:17:39.430","modified":"2026-08-11T16:17:39.430","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":null,"affectedPackages":[],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/c5a82fe013e73c98004ad7cd4f906b1ad1ed610e","label":"vim/vim@c5a82fe"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/c5a82fe013e73c98004ad7cd4f906b1ad1ed610e"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/vim/vim/security/advisories/GHSA-r5v6-q6j8-8qw2"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","NVD","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2026-08-11T16:17:39.430"}}
