AI-suggested

A fix is available in patriksimek vm2 version 3.11.6 and later. Users should upgrade to version 3.11.6 or newer to remediate this vulnerability. Until upgraded, avoid using the builtin: ['*'] configuration to restrict access to sensitive built-in modules. Patch status is confirmed by the affectedVersions field indicating versions before 3.11.6 are vulnerable.

Description

vm2 before 3.11.6 fails to restrict access to os and dns builtins under the builtin: ['*'] configuration, allowing sandbox code to read host process identity and network topology. Attackers can invoke dns.setServers() to hijack the host process DNS resolver globally, redirecting all subsequent host DNS queries through an attacker-controlled resolver.
