With this minimal .vimrc I get a highlight conflict in several situations.
set nocompatible
set runtimepath +=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim
filetype off
call vundle#begin()
Plugin 'itchyny/vim-cursorword'
Plugin 'lfv89/vim-interestingwords'
Plugin 'w0ng/vim-hybrid'
call vundle#end()
filetype plugin on
filetype indent on
syntax on
set cursorcolumn
set termguicolors
set background=dark
colorscheme hybrid
When the cursor is on a brace, the matching brace is improperly highlighted (showmatch):
When the cursor is on foo the other corresponding functions are improperly highlighted (itchyny/vim-cursorword):
When using the plugin lfv89/vim-interestingwords and the cursor is on a highlighted word:
As this issue appears with different plugins, I would like to understand the cause and find a way to solve it:

Vim 7.3+ on Linux and Mac, using a terminal that supports 256 colours., So my guess, the culprit is your terminal. – mike Apr 19 '17 at 19:43TERMtoxterm-256coloror similar in your terminal? – mike Apr 21 '17 at 5:04
