Until a fix is available, avoid processing untrusted input that triggers js_print_object on arrays, maps, or sets in QuickJS.
Description
CVE-2025-62490 is a use-after-free vulnerability in QuickJS's js_print_object function. When printing arrays, maps, or sets, the function fetches the collection length or iterates over elements, but attacker-controlled callbacks during printing can resize or remove elements, causing out-of-bounds access and use-after-free conditions. This flaw can lead to high-impact consequences including confidentiality, integrity, and availability violations.
