CVE-2026-92950: Patriksimek VM2

High severity, CVSS 8.6. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

vm2 before 3.11.7 contains a sandbox escape vulnerability in the CLI tool that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in the host Node.js process. Attackers can supply a malicious script file to the vm2 CLI that uses require(__filename) to re-execute itself in the host realm, bypassing sandbox isolation and accessing host modules like fs and child_process.
