[NEU] [kritisch] vm2: Mehrere Schwachstellen
BSI rates multiple vm2 flaws as critical, including sandbox-escape-to-RCE—notable because the long-deprecated library still lurks in many Node.js dependency trees across Mittelstand CI/CD environments.
Summary written by editorial AI · Source link below
Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in vm2 ausnutzen, um Sicherheitsvorkehrungen zu umgehen, um Informationen offenzulegen, um Daten zu manipulieren, um einen Denial of Service Angriff durchzuführen und um beliebigen Programmcode auszuführen.
Editorial Analysis
vm2 remains a transitive dependency in many enterprise Node.js projects despite its deprecation; critical RCE flaws make continued use an unacceptable risk.
Perform an organisation-wide SBOM scan for vm2, block it in internal registries, and migrate affected workloads to maintained sandboxing libraries.
A deprecated but widely embedded open-source component has critical code-execution flaws requiring immediate removal from affected systems.
