CVE-2026-92944 PUBLISHED

vm2 3.10.2 through 3.11.6 Sandbox Escape via Promise Protector

Assigner: VulnCheck
Reserved: 17.09.2026 Published: 17.09.2026 Updated: 17.09.2026

vm2 versions 3.10.2 through 3.11.6 contain a sandbox escape vulnerability on Node.js 26 where Promise.prototype.finally() bypasses vm2's wrapper protections due to a stale PromiseThenLookupChain protector in V8 14.6. Attackers can exploit this by creating an async function that returns a Promise with an attacker-controlled constructor Symbol.species, allowing them to reach the host Function constructor and process object for arbitrary code execution.
