Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2017-12-04 02:06:22 UTC
CVE-2017-17087 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2017-17087):
  fileio.c in Vim prior to 8.0.1263 sets the group ownership of a .swp file to
  the editor's primary group (which may be different from the group ownership
  of the original file), which allows local users to obtain sensitive
  information by leveraging an applicable group membership, as demonstrated by
  /etc/shadow owned by root:shadow mode 0640, but /etc/.shadow.swp owned by
  root:users mode 0640, a different vulnerability than CVE-2017-1000382.

GLSA Vote: No

HPPA is stabilized already.

@vim, please drop the vulnerable versions.
