CVE-2008-3075 – plugin: improper Implementation of shellescape() (arbitrary code execution)

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2008-3075

The shellescape function in Vim 7.0 through 7.2, including 7.2a.10, allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via the "!" (exclamation point) shell metacharacter in (1) the filename of a ZIP archive and possibly (2) the filename of the first file in a ZIP archive, which is not properly handled by zip.vim in the VIM ZIP plugin (zipPlugin.vim) v.11 through v.21, as demonstrated by the zipplugin and zipplugin.v2 test cases. NOTE: this issue reportedly exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-2712. NOTE: this issue has the same root cause as CVE-2008-3074. NOTE: due to the complexity of the associated disclosures and the incomplete information related to them, there may be inaccuracies in this CVE description and in external mappings to this identifier. • http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=506919 http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-security-announce/2009-03/msg00004.html http://marc.info/?l=bugtraq&m=121494431426308&w=2 http://secunia.com/advisories/34418 http://wiki.rpath.com/wiki/Advisories:rPSA-2008-0324 http://www.mandriva.com/security/advisories?name=MDVSA-2008:236 http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2008/07/07/1 http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2008/07/07/4 http://www.openwall. • CWE-94: Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') •
