Hi, The following vulnerability was published for vim. CVE-2026-52860[0]: | Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to version | 9.2.0597, Vim's Python omni-completion executes reconstructed | function and class definitions from the current buffer with exec() | as part of populating the completion dictionary. Python evaluates | function default values, parameter annotations, and class base | expressions at definition time, so a hostile buffer can execute | attacker-controlled Python expressions during omni-completion. The | existing g:pythoncomplete_allow_import mitigation (GHSA-52mc- | rq6p-rc7c) does not cover this path, because the attacker-controlled | code is not a harvested import/from statement. This issue has been | patched in version 9.2.0597. If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
