CVE-2026-92961 PUBLISHED

vm2 before 3.11.6 Memory Exhaustion DoS via bufferAllocLimit Bypass

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

vm2 before 3.11.6 fails to enforce bufferAllocLimit on ArrayBuffer, SharedArrayBuffer, and TypedArray constructors, allowing attackers to allocate arbitrary host memory. Attackers can bypass the buffer allocation cap by using these V8 intrinsics to exhaust host process memory and trigger out-of-memory conditions.
