Vulnerability Title
Wasmtime panics when transcoding misaligned utf-16 strings
Source: NVD (National Vulnerability Database)
Vulnerability Description
Wasmtime is a runtime for WebAssembly. Prior to 24.0.7, 36.0.7, 42.0.2, and 43.0.1, Wasmtime's implementation of transcoding strings into the Component Model's utf16 or latin1+utf16 encodings improperly verified the alignment of reallocated strings. This meant that unaligned pointers could be passed to the host for transcoding which would trigger a host panic. This panic is possible to trigger from malicious guests which transfer very specific strings across components with specific addresses. Host panics are considered a DoS vector in Wasmtime as the panic conditions are controlled by the guest in this situation. This vulnerability is fixed in 24.0.7, 36.0.7, 42.0.2, and 43.0.1.

Vulnerability Title
wasmtime 输入验证错误漏洞
Source: CNNVD (China National Vulnerability Database)
Vulnerability Description
wasmtime是Bytecode Alliance开源的一个轻量级WebAssembly运行时。 Wasmtime 24.0.7之前版本、36.0.7之前版本、42.0.2之前版本和43.0.1之前版本存在输入验证错误漏洞,该漏洞源于将字符串转码到组件模型的utf16或latin1+utf16编码时,未正确验证重新分配字符串的对齐方式,可能导致传递未对齐指针给主机进行转码,从而触发主机恐慌,构成拒绝服务向量。
