[NEU] [kritisch] vm2: Mehrere Schwachstellen
BSI flags critical vm2 sandbox escapes enabling RCE and security bypass — a significant supply-chain concern for enterprises running Node.js automation or CI/CD workloads that rely on this deprecated library.
Summary written by editorial AI · Source link below
Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in vm2 ausnutzen, um beliebigen Programmcode mit den Rechten des Dienstes auszuführen, Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, Daten offenzulegen oder zu manipulieren oder einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand auszulösen.
Editorial Analysis
Organisations using vm2 for code sandboxing face arbitrary code execution risk; the library's deprecated status means there will be no upstream fixes, forcing migration decisions.
Audit all deployments for vm2 usage and migrate to a supported sandbox solution such as isolated-vm or container-level isolation.
A critical vulnerability in a widely-used Node.js sandboxing library could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code in automation and development pipelines.
