Meng, This particular problem was fixed in Vim v9.0.1740 https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/0a0764684591c7c6a5d722b628f11dc96208e853 I have no idea, why this issue is worth a CVE, because if an attacker can modify your .viminfo file to make Vim crash, he already has the possibilities to do much more harm directly. So I don't think this is particular useful CVE. I'd also like to dispute this.
