NVD description

vm2 is an open source vm/sandbox for Node.js. Prior to version 3.11.4, by combining Buffer.call.call({}.__lookupGetter__, Buffer, "__proto__"), Buffer.call.call({}.__lookupSetter__, Buffer, "__proto__"), and Node.js's ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE Error, the host's TypeError constructor can be obtained, which allows the escape from the sandbox. This allows attackers to run arbitrary code. This issue has been patched in version 3.11.4.

    🚨Critical - vm2 Sandbox Escape (CVE-2026-47131) vm2 (a popular sandbox library for Node.js) contains a critical sandbox escape vulnerability. By leveraging specific Buffer prototype manipulations and WebAssembly.compileStreaming error handling, an attacker can obtain the host's TypeError constructor and ultimately escape the sandbox to execute arbitrary code on the host system. This leads to full remote code execution (RCE) in environments that use vm2 to run untrusted code. 👉Affected: vm2 <= 3.11.3

    Post summary

    The post announces a critical sandbox escape vulnerability in vm2 (CVE‑2026‑47131), detailing how manipulation of Buffer prototype and WebAssembly.compileStreaming can lead to remote code execution on the host. No PoC, exploit code, active exploitation, patch, or debunking information is provided.
