  - wasmtime is a runtime for WebAssembly. The 19.0.0 release of Wasmtime contains a regression introduced
    during its development which can lead to a guest WebAssembly module causing a panic in the host runtime. A
    valid WebAssembly module, when executed at runtime, may cause this panic. This vulnerability has been
    patched in version 19.0.1. (CVE-2024-30266)
