Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Wasmtime versions from 39.0.0 before 48.0.4, and from 49.0.0 before 49.0.2, are affected by a native stack buffer overflow in component async-lifted callback handling, where the callback result count is not validated. The source gives few details on what triggers it or what access an attacker needs. Upgrade to Wasmtime 48.0.4 or 49.0.2, depending on your release line.
