        <p>Applying the ``D'' to a file with a crafted file name,
        or inside a directory with a crafted directory name, can
        lead to arbitrary code execution.</p>

        <blockquote cite="http://www.rdancer.org/vulnerablevim-netrw.v5.html";>
        <p>Lack of sanitization throughout Netrw can lead to arbitrary
        code execution upon opening a directory with a crafted
        name.</p>

        <blockquote

        <p>The Vim Netrw Plugin shares the FTP user name and password
        across all FTP sessions.  Every time Vim makes a new FTP
        connection, it sends the user name and password of the
        previous FTP session to the FTP server.</p>
