CVE-2024-35424Public exploit

Process crash via null import pointer dereference

Published Nov 8, 2024 · Updated Nov 12, 2024

Invalid memory read in VMIR e8117 allows local users to crash the virtual machine by supplying a crafted WebAssembly file. The import_function parser follows a null pointer while processing an import declaration, causing a zero-page read and segmentation fault. Execution requires the crafted file to be opened locally; the demonstrated consequence is process termination, not code execution.
