CVE-2022-0696 [MEDIUM] CWE-476 vim: NULL Pointer Dereference in vim prior to 8.2
vim: NULL Pointer Dereference in vim prior to 8.2
NULL Pointer Dereference in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2.4428.
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in vim's find_ucmd() function of usercmd.c file. This flaw allows an attacker to trick a user into opening a crafted file, triggering a NULL pointer dereference. This issue leads to an application crash, causing a denial of service.
Statement: The versions of vim shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux are not affected, because vulnerable code is not present in our code-base as it is a little different and secured than upstream.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this issue as having a Moderate security impact. For additional information, refer to the Issue Severity Classification: https://access.redhat.com/security/updates/clas

FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to additional products is identified, we will update the CVE to reflect this.
