Mitigation checklist

Recommended fix / mitigation
  • Restrict execution to trusted WebAssembly modules and avoid processing unvalidated binaries from untrusted sources. If the runtime must process untrusted modules, deploy the hosting application inside an operating system-level sandbox or container (such as Podman or a systemd service unit configured with strict seccomp filtering, unprivileged user namespaces, and read-only filesystem mounts) to contain a potential sandbox breakout. Caveats: Additional host-level sandboxing introduces operational overhead and may restrict legitimate host system interactions or inter-process communication required by the guest application.
