Description
Wasmtime 47.0.0 before 48.0.6 and 49.0.0 before 49.0.3 contains a memory misalignment flaw in VMContext layout that causes undefined behavior when modules contain an odd number of exception tags. A WebAssembly module with an odd tag count misaligns subsequent host fields in embedders with exceptions enabled, although no exploitation path is currently known.
