CVE-2023-48232

A flaw was found in Vim, an open source command line text editor. A floating point exception may occur when calculating the line offset for overlong lines when smooth scrolling is enabled and the cpo-settings include the ‘n’ flag. This issue may occur when a window border is present and when the wrapped line continues on the next physical line directly in the window border because the ‘cpo’ setting includes the ‘n’ flag. Only users with non-default settings are affected and the exception should only result in a crash.

Mitigation

Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
