CVE-2026-92947

vm2 before 3.11.7 exposes Node's shared Buffer pool to sandboxed code, allowing disclosure of host memory used by Buffer.from, Buffer.concat, and related allocations. Sandboxed code can read and write to host-realm buffers by acquiring ArrayBuffers from small allocations, leading to sensitive data exposure and potential denial-of-service.

What this means for your business

  • An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, without a login, and without anyone at your company clicking anything.

What to do

  1. 1Ask your IT team or provider whether any of your systems use the affected product.
  2. 2If you do, follow the vendor's guidance. No patch reference has been published yet.
