Vim is an open source command line text editor. When using the z= command,
the user may overflow the count with values larger than MAX_INT. Impact is
low, user interaction is required and a crash may not even happen in all
situations. This vulnerability has been addressed in commit 73b2d379
which has been included in release version 9.0.2111. Users are advised to
upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
