Root Cause Analysis
The commit 69e03c3 in PR#4411 explicitly addresses CVE-2017-11916 by adding bailout checks to helper call instructions in these functions. The vulnerability stemmed from missing safeguards for implicit calls during JIT optimization of RegExp
/string
operations, allowing memory corruption via crafted objects. The code changes directly modify these functions to insert AddBailoutToHelperCallInstr
, confirming their role in the vulnerability.
