Technical details

A type confusion vulnerability exists in Samsung's Escargot JavaScript engine within the 'arrayDefineOwnPropertyBySpreadElementOperation' function. The issue arises from a failure to correctly validate object layouts when switching between 'Fast' and 'Slow' array modes during spread element operations. An attacker can exploit this by providing specially crafted JavaScript code that triggers an incompatible type access, leading to pointer manipulation and a segmentation fault (SEGV). The vulnerability was identified via an assertion failure in the ByteCodeInterpreter and is fixed in commit 779f6bedf58f334dec64b0a51ebb724b4708b84a.
