Root Cause Analysis
The provided vulnerability information (CVE-2018-8371) describes a memory corruption issue in ChakraCore's scripting engine leading to RCE via an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787). However, the GitHub patch details, commit diffs, and specific technical writeups identifying the exact vulnerable functions are not available in the provided sources. Public advisories (NVD, GitHub) only reference high-level descriptions of the flaw ('handling objects in memory') without disclosing function names, file paths, or implementation specifics. While the vulnerability likely involves functions related to object memory management, JIT compilation, or array operations in ChakraCore, the lack of concrete technical documentation or patch analysis makes it impossible to identify specific functions with high confidence.
