CVE-2026-115892: Wasmtime: Panic lowering a host-created component model stream into a guest that expects a different payload type

MediumCVSS 5.7 · v4.0—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 22/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.43% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. Administrator privileges are required. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
  • Fixed version: wasmtime (crates.io) 48.0.7, 49.0.4.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to wasmtime (crates.io) 48.0.7, 49.0.4 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Wasmtime is a runtime for WebAssembly. From 46.0.0 until 48.0.7 and 49.0.4, lowering a host-created component-model stream or future into a guest can omit a required payload-type check after the value passes through guest code and returns through StreamAny, FutureAny, Val::Stream, Val::Future, or an equivalent typed reader. A malicious guest that controls exported function types or returned values can cause the host to pass the type-erased value to a guest expecting a different payload type, which panics the Wasmtime host. This issue is fixed in versions 48.0.7 and 49.0.4.
