Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-88hf-g992-jg85. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

vm2 before 3.11.8 contains a sandbox escape vulnerability in NodeVM that allows attackers to access the host proto getter/setter through console._stdout and console._stderr. Attackers can overwrite EventEmitter.prototype.emit and trigger process events to execute code with process context, bypassing code generation restrictions.
