CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedVersions of vm2 from 3.11.3 to 3.11.6 are vulnerable, exposing the host TLS module to NodeVM sandbox code, which allows attackers to manipulate the TLS trust store by replacing process-wide certificate authorities. This critical vulnerability can lead to the acceptance of malicious certificates by host HTTPS clients, potentially compromising secure communications. Organizations using affected versions of vm2 should prioritize immediate updates to mitigate the risk of certificate spoofing and man-in-the-middle attacks.

Original NVD Description
vm2 versions from 3.11.3 before 3.11.7 expose the host tls module to NodeVM sandbox code, allowing attackers to call tls.setDefaultCACertificates() and replace process-wide certificate authorities. Attackers with access to allowed tls and url builtins can use URLSearchParams to create host-realm arrays and manipulate the TLS trust store, enabling subsequent host HTTPS clients to accept attacker-controlled certificates.
