ka0ttic, slarti, rphillips or agriffis please advise.

ciaranm says that upgrading to 6.3.082 resolves this (and similar issues with
expand())

i'm working on committing 084.

ok. 084 has been committed and unmasked on x86.

Arches, please test and mark gvim (except arm and s390), vim and vim-core
6.3.084 stable. Thanks everybody!

Is it OK to mark these bad boys as blocker during release time when we're under
crunch time if it is holding us up?

Heh...

Well... this is blocking the release at the moment... thanks all

------- Comment #7 From Daniel Gryniewicz 2005-07-21 14:08:12 0000 -------
This would already be stable on amd64 if I could get the patches from the
mirrors...

------- Comment #11 From Ryan Phillips (RETIRED) 2005-07-21 14:38:28 0000 -------
The mirrors should have the packages now.

FYI ppc forgot about gvim... how's that reading ability doing? ;)

Yeah, yeah.  Sorry about that, I forgot to commit.  It's fixed.

Stable on alpha.

This one is ready for GLSA decision. 

------- Comment #19 From Tavis Ormandy (RETIRED) 2005-07-23 02:35:22 0000 -------
voting NO, gentoo disables modelines by default, which i assume is the only 
attack vector here.

Also, the vim documentation states that the sandbox is not guaranteed to be 
secure.

------- Comment #20 From Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen 2005-07-23 04:15:47 0000 -------
Thx for the explanation Tavis. I also vote NO.  
  
Closing with NO GLSA.  
 
arm, ia64, mips, s390 please remember to mark stable. 

------- Comment #21 From Hardave Riar (RETIRED) 2005-07-23 15:05:54 0000 -------
Stable on mips.

------- Comment #22 From Stefan Cornelius (RETIRED) 2005-07-26 05:15:09 0000 -------

vim 6.3 before 6.3.082, with modelines enabled, allows attackers to
execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the (1) glob or
(2) expand commands of a foldexpr expression for calculating fold
levels.
