CVE-2022-39394: wasmtime_trap_code C API function has out of bounds write vulnerability

February 1, 2024 (updated May 2, 2025)

There is a bug in Wasmtime’s C API implementation where the definition of the wasmtime_trap_code does not match its declared signature in the wasmtime/trap.h header file. This discrepancy causes the function implementation to perform a 4-byte write into a 1-byte buffer provided by the caller. This can lead to three zero bytes being written beyond the 1-byte location provided by the caller.
