How to fix?

Upgrade wasmtime to version 0.38.1 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Calculation due to incorrect semantics implementation of the i8x16.swizzle and select WebAssembly instructions.

Note: The impact of this is benign for hosts running WebAssembly but represents possible vulnerabilities within the execution of a guest program. The select instruction is only affected when the inputs are of v128 type. The aarch64 implementation of the simd proposal is not affected.
