Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-24116)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in Cranelift's compilation of the f64.copysign WebAssembly instruction when processing a memory-loaded operand on x86-64 with AVX. A local user can execute crafted WebAssembly code to cause a denial of service.

The issue requires signals-based-traps to be disabled and guard pages to be enabled, and user interaction is required.
