CVE-2026-54914
HighCVSS 8.3Summary
In WebAssembly Micro Runtime (WAMR) prior to 2.4.5, wasi_poll_oneoff validates the output pointer for only one wasi_event_t, while wasmtime_ssp_poll_oneoff can write as many events as the guest-controlled nsubscriptions value. A crafted guest module can cause a write past the validated Wasm linear-memory boundary into adjacent host heap memory, crashing the host process and potentially affecting confidentiality or integrity depending on heap layout.
Risk Assessment
The vulnerability lets a malicious Wasm module corrupt host process memory and crash it (denial of service), with possible further impact depending on heap layout. It affects environments running untrusted Wasm code in WAMR.
Recommendation
Update WebAssembly Micro Runtime to version 2.4.5 or later. Until patched, avoid running untrusted Wasm modules.
Other vulnerabilities in WebAssembly Micro Runtime (WAMR)
See all- CVE-2026-54913Medium
WebAssembly Micro Runtime (WAMR) prior to 2.4.5, load_init_expr accepts a non-reference heap-type byte for ref.null when WASM_ENABLE_GC=0, while the WASMValue cur_value union is not zero-initialized. A crafted module can declare an i64, f64, or v128 global initialized through the invalid ref.null form, causing uninitialized host-stack bytes to be copied into a guest-readable value.
- CVE-2026-54912High
In WebAssembly Micro Runtime (WAMR) prior to 2.4.5, the two-pass fast interpreter loader in wasm_loader.c can make inconsistent constant-table decisions between the sizing pass and the emitting pass. A crafted module can make the second pass write partially attacker-controlled compiled-code data beyond the heap buffer allocated from the first pass's size calculation, corrupting host heap metadata and deterministically crashing the process.
- CVE-2025-64713Medium
WebAssembly Micro Runtime (WAMR) is a lightweight standalone WebAssembly runtime. Prior to version 2.4.4, an out-of-bounds array access issue exists in WAMR's fast interpreter mode during WASM bytecode loading, involving the frame_ref_bottom and frame_offset_bottom arrays. It has been patched in version 2.4.4.
- CVE-2025-64704Medium
WebAssembly Micro Runtime (WAMR) is a lightweight standalone WebAssembly (Wasm) runtime. Prior to version 2.4.4, WAMR is susceptible to a segmentation fault in the v128.store instruction. This issue has been patched in version 2.4.4.
Original NVD description (English source)
WebAssembly Micro Runtime (WAMR) is a lightweight standalone WebAssembly (Wasm) runtime. Prior to 2.4.5, wasi_poll_oneoff in core/iwasm/libraries/libc-wasi/libc_wasi_wrapper.c validates the output pointer for only one wasi_event_t, while wasmtime_ssp_poll_oneoff in core/iwasm/libraries/libc-wasi/sandboxed-system-primitives/src/posix.c can write as many events as the guest-controlled nsubscriptions value. A crafted guest module can provide multiple subscriptions that produce events while positioning an output region large enough for only one event, causing a later out[nevents] write to cross the validated Wasm linear-memory boundary into adjacent host heap memory. The overwrite contains partly attacker-controlled event data and can reliably crash the host process, with further confidentiality or integrity consequences depending on heap layout. This issue is fixed in version 2.4.5.
