Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause unsafe sandbox state reuse.

The vulnerability exists due to the use of a collision-prone hash algorithm in the sandbox identifier cache key generation logic when hashing normalized sandbox configuration payloads. A remote attacker can provide a crafted configuration that collides with another cache identity to cause unsafe sandbox state reuse.

The issue may also increase the risk of cache poisoning when deterministic identifiers are used to decide whether an existing sandbox container can be reused safely.
