The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 21.04 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5093-1 advisory.

  • vim is vulnerable to Heap-based Buffer Overflow (CVE-2021-3770, CVE-2021-3778)

  • vim is vulnerable to Use After Free (CVE-2021-3796)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
