CVE-2026-92947

Status: DeferredCritical (10)—

vm2 before 3.11.7 exposes Node's shared Buffer pool to sandboxed code, allowing disclosure of host memory used by Buffer.from, Buffer.concat, and related allocations. Sandboxed code can read and write to host-realm buffers by acquiring ArrayBuffers from small allocations, leading to sensitive data exposure and potential denial-of-service.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

🎯 ATT&CK techniques

How this vulnerability is exploited and what the attacker gains, in MITRE ATT&CK terms.
