Hi, The following vulnerability was published for vim. CVE-2026-52858[0]: | Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to version | 9.2.0561, the Python omni-completion script in python3complete.vim | for Vim with the +python3 interpreter enabled (and the legacy | pythoncomplete.vim for builds with the +python interpreter) executes | the import and from statements found in the current buffer through | Python's import machinery. Because the buffer's working directory is | on sys.path, opening a hostile .py file with a sibling Python | package and invoking omni-completion runs that package's top-level | code as the editing user. This issue has been patched in version | 9.2.0561. If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
