Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

vm2 versions from 3.11.4 before 3.11.7 expose two registered Node.js stream symbols, nodejs.stream.disturbed and nodejs.stream.errored, from host WebStream prototypes to sandbox code. Sandbox code that can reach a host WebStream object can write these symbols onto it, making stream.Readable.isDisturbed() return false for a stream that was already read. Upgrade to vm2 3.11.7 or later.
