CVE-2026-92937.

Disclosure summary

## Summary Untrusted JavaScript run by vm2 can escape the sandbox and execute arbitrary commands in the host Node.js process when an embedder-exposed host Promise rejects. This is an incomplete fix for GHSA-m283-3h24-438v: the advisory's capability-bearing rejection rebuild runs only through this direct Promise-handler path, so call/apply indirection bypasses the protection it introduced. The bridge sanitises host rejection values before sandbox callbacks run, but the gate at `lib/bridge.js:1624` identity-checks only the direct call target. Registering the rejection handler through `Function.prototype.call` indirection, `p.then.call(p, undefined, cb)`, makes the intercepted target host `Function.prototype.call`, so the sanitiser never runs and the raw host error reaches the sandbox (`lib/bridge.js:1639`) without the rebuild that strips host references carried by its own properties (`lib/setup-sandbox.js:2104`). A rejection error whose own property references a powerful host object, for example `err.detail = process`, therefore reaches sandbox code as a fully functional proxy, and `e.detail.mainModule.require('child_process').execSync(...)` executes with host privileges.
