FKIE_CVE-2008-3294
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2008-07-24 18:41 - Updated: 2025-04-09 00:30
Severity ?
Summary
src/configure.in in Vim 5.0 through 7.1, when used for a build with Python support, does not ensure that the Makefile-conf temporary file has the intended ownership and permissions, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code by modifying this file during a time window, or by creating it ahead of time with permissions that prevent its modification by configure.
