It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2007-2953 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-2953/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-2953/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-2953","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-2953/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-2953","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2007-2953","GHSA-ggw5-mghh-pg96"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Vim text editor","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A format string vulnerability in Vim allows attackers to execute arbitrary code if a user opens a malicious help file.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"flexera","cpe":[{"product":"vim","vendor":"vim_development_group"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Format string vulnerability in the helptags_one function in src/ex_cmds.c in Vim 6.4 and earlier, and 7.x up to 7.1, allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a help-tags tag in a help file, related to the helptags command.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2953","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":32,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2954"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2952"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-07-31","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-2368","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-07-26"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2438","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-05-02"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-1138","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-12-22"},{"cvss_score":5.1,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0408","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-09-18"},{"cvss_score":4.6,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-0069","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-01-29"},{"cvss_score":4.6,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1377","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-09-01"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A format string vulnerability in Vim allows attackers to execute arbitrary code if a user opens a malicious help file.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-2953/"}
