Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions vim versions prior to 8.2

Description The issue is related to an out-of-bounds write in the vim regsub both function of the regexp.c component in the Vim text editor. This can allow a remote attacker to access confidential data, compromise its integrity, and cause a denial of service.
