Description Johannes Segitz 2017-12-04 07:38:30 UTC 
CVE-2017-17087

fileio.c in Vim prior to 8.0.1263 sets the group ownership of a .swp file to the
editor's primary group (which may be different from the group ownership of the
original file), which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by
leveraging an applicable group membership, as demonstrated by /etc/shadow owned
by root:shadow mode 0640, but /etc/.shadow.swp owned by root:users mode 0640, a
different vulnerability than CVE-2017-1000382.
