The "Common vulnerabilities and exposures project" identifies the following problem: Editors typically provide a way to embed editor configuration commands (aka modelines) which are executed once a file is opened, while harmful commands are filtered by a sandbox mechanism. It was discovered that the "source" command (used to include and execute another file) was not filtered, allowing shell command execution with a carefully crafted file opened in Vim. For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in version 8.0.0197-4+deb9u2. We recommend that you upgrade your vim packages.
