Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The provided information describes a memory corruption vulnerability in the Chakra JavaScript engine (CVE-2016-3296) but does not include specific code references, commit diffs, or patch details that explicitly identify vulnerable functions. While the vulnerability is attributed to improper handling of objects in memory by the Chakra engine, the advisories and bulletins only describe the issue at a high level (e.g., 'modifying how the Chakra JavaScript scripting engine handles objects in memory'). Without access to the actual code changes or function-level documentation, it is not possible to pinpoint specific functions with high confidence. The lack of GitHub patch information or commit diffs further limits the ability to isolate the exact vulnerable code paths.
