CVE-2025-62711: Wasmtime vulnerable to segfault when using component resources
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 8/100)
- 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: 0.41% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. Special conditions such as timing or configuration are required.
- Fixed version: wasmtime (crates.io) 38.0.3.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to wasmtime (crates.io) 38.0.3 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Wasmtime is a runtime for WebAssembly. In versions from 38.0.0 to before 38.0.3, the implementation of component-model related host-to-wasm trampolines in Wasmtime contained a bug where it's possible to carefully craft a component, which when called in a specific way, would crash the host with a segfault or assert failure. Wasmtime 38.0.3 has been released and is patched to fix this issue. There are no workarounds.
