alexcrichton opened PR #13012 from alexcrichton:fix-verify-alignment to bytecodealliance:main:

Note: this is a fix for GHSA-jxhv-7h78-9775

This commit updates string transcoding between guest modules to properly verify alignment. Previously alignment was only verified on the first allocation, not reallocations, which is not spec-compliant. This additionally fixes a possible host panic when dealing with unaligned pointers.
