NVD description

Capstone is a disassembly framework. Prior to version 6.0.0-Alpha9, Capstone's WebAssembly backend accepts attacker-controlled raw WASM instruction bytes through the public `cs_disasm()` and `cs_disasm_iter()` APIs. For a large but well-formed `br_table` instruction, the WASM decoder accumulates the immediate length in a wider local variable but returns it through a `uint16_t` instruction-size path. When the encoded instruction length is exactly 65,536 bytes, the size wraps to zero and `cs_disasm()` can repeatedly decode the same instruction without advancing. For larger lengths, `cs_disasm_iter()` advances into the middle of the `br_table` payload and decodes target bytes as subsequent instructions. This is an availability and parser-integrity issue. Version 6.0.0-Alpha9 patches the issue.
