## Overview

Wasmtime before 24.0.12, 25.0.0 before 36.0.13, 37.0.0 before 46.0.2, and 47.0.0 before 47.0.3 contains a type confusion vulnerability because several Store APIs fail to validate that objects belong to the Store's Engine. Embedders mixing objects between Engines via Instance::new, StructRefPre::new, or Tag::new can trigger trampoline signature mismatches causing out-of-bounds stack writes, GC heap corruption, or panics.

## Affected

- `wasmtime < 24.0.12`
- `wasmtime >= 25.0.0 < 36.0.13`
- `wasmtime >= 37.0.0 < 46.0.2`
- `wasmtime >= 47.0.0 < 47.0.3`

## Remediation

Refer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.

## Package advisory (CVE-2026-115393)
