patch 9.0.2129: [security]: use-after-free in call_dfunc() Commit: https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/a555069b7d790abedc60edc505bd35bda257949d Author: mityu <mityu.mail@gmail.com> Date: Sat Nov 25 15:41:20 2023 +0100 patch 9.0.2129: [security]: use-after-free in call_dfunc() Problem: [security]: use-after-free in call_dfunc() Solution: Refresh dfunc pointer closes: #13571 This Commit fixes a SEGV caused by a use-after-free bug in call_dfunc(). When calling check_ufunc_arg_types() from the call_dfunc() it may cause def functions to be re-compiled and if there are too many def functions, the def_functions array will be re-allocated. Which means, that the dfunc pointer in call_dfunc() now starts pointing to freed memory. So we need to reset the dfunc pointer after calling check_ufunc_arg_types(). Let's also add a test, to ensure we do not regress.

README_ole.txt for version 9.0 of Vim: Vi IMproved.

This archive contains gvim.exe with OLE interface.
This version of gvim.exe can also load a number of interface dynamically (you
can optionally install the .dll files for each interface).
It is only for MS-Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP.

Also see the README_bindos.txt, README_dos.txt and README.txt files.

Be careful not to overwrite the OLE gvim.exe with the non-OLE gvim.exe when
unpacking another binary archive!  Check the output of ":version":
	Win32s - "MS-Windows 16/32 bit GUI version"
	 Win32 - "MS-Windows 32 bit GUI version"
Win32 with OLE - "MS-Windows 32 bit GUI version with OLE support"
