wasm::WasmBinaryBuilder::readUserSection in wasm-binary.cpp in Binaryen 1.38.22 triggers an attempt at excessive memory allocation, as demonstrated by wasm-merge and wasm-opt.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.16%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
