AI-suggested

Upgrade to vm2 version 3.11.7 or later, where this vulnerability is fixed. The fix corrects the sanitization logic for rejected host Promise values and prevents sandbox escape via the described attack vector.

Description

vm2 version 3.11.6 contains a critical sandbox escape vulnerability that allows untrusted code to execute arbitrary commands on the host Node.js process. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization of rejected host Promise values when rejection handlers are registered via Function.prototype.call or .apply indirection. This flaw enables sandboxed code to obtain a proxy to host objects, leading to remote code execution. The issue is fixed in vm2 version 3.11.7.
