vm2 is vulnerable to Information Disclosure
100
Critical Risk
This Affects:
vm2TL;DR
vm2 exposes the host Buffer object to sandboxed code, and small allocations through Buffer.allocUnsafe(), Buffer.from(), and Buffer.concat() draw from a memory pool shared with the host realm. By allocating from this shared pool, sandboxed code reads sensitive host memory that passes through those functions. It can also write into those buffers, corrupting host data. The fix isolates the sandbox from the shared Buffer pool.
Who does this affect?
You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range.
