On this page
Wasmtime 47.0.0 before 48.0.8, 49.0.0 before 49.0.5, and 50.0.0 before 50.0.1 contains an insufficient type-check in the TypedFunc embedder API for I31, Option<I31>, and Option<NoneRef> parameter or result types, reaching an unreachable!() path. A malicious guest module exporting a function that uses another anyref-hierarchy type can panic the host embedding, causing denial of service.

Explain CVE-2026-126408 for an engineer deciding whether to act. Use https://cve.bz/api/public/cves/CVE-2026-126408?via=ask-ai-copy and https://cve.bz/cve/CVE-2026-126408?via=ask-ai-copy as the source of truth: what is affected and which versions fix it, whether it is in CISA KEV, public exploits, and its EPSS (an internet-wide 30-day estimate of exploitation activity, not a forecast for my systems). If they give no fixed versions, use the CVE record https://cveawg.mitre.org/api/cve/CVE-2026-126408 or the vendor advisory, not third-party mirrors. Tell me how to check whether I am affected and how to verify a fix. Cite the sources and say where they are uncertain.Opens a third-party assistant; its answer is its own, not cve.bz's.
