Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Reachable Assertion via improper handling of try block implicit slots in the makeStackMap function in the WebAssembly BBQ JIT compiler. An attacker can cause an unexpected process crash by processing maliciously crafted WebAssembly content that triggers On-Stack Replacement with try blocks, where the try block's implicit exception slot overlaps with argument locations, causing debug assertions to fire.
