Memory corruption via missing resizable-buffer length check
Published May 28, 2026 · Updated May 28, 2026
Out-of-bounds write in Samsung Escargot allows attackers to corrupt engine memory through crafted JavaScript ArrayBuffer transfers. In BuiltinArrayBuffer.cpp, ArrayBuffer.prototype.transfer accepted a new byte length above a resizable buffer's maxByteLength without throwing a RangeError. The CNA identifies revision 36f5fb58366a67b713c02f6fd985e924fcc09e31 as affected, while the upstream pull request shows that revision merging the bounds check; exposure requires code predating that check and execution of attacker-controlled JavaScript with user interaction.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
