This code in contrib/libedit/common.c:

ed_move_to_end(EditLine *el, wint_t c __attribute__((__unused__)))
{
     ...;
                  el->el_line.cursor--;

causes el->el_line.cursor to point before the start of
el->el_line.buffer if the current line is empty. Then subsequent
commands that read or write via cursor use the wrong memory.

For example, if I run valgrind /bin/sh and type

  $ set -o vi

and then (on a new line)

  ESC [ F x

valgrind says
