Detail

Florian Larysch and Bram Moolenaar discovered that vim, an enhanced vi editor, does not properly validate values for the the 'filetype', 'syntax' and 'keymap' options, which may result in the execution of arbitrary code if a file with a specially crafted modeline is opened.

For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 2:7.4.488-7+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your vim packages.
