Wasmtime GitHub notifications bot (Oct 15 2026 at 23:09): Wasmtime GitHub notifications bot (Oct 15 2026 at 23:09):cfallin opened PR #14777 from cfallin:fix-racy-debugger-port to bytecodealliance:main:
Addressing [this comment]: rather than search for a free port and then bind it, which has a TOCTOU race, we should add a mode to the gdbstub server to select any port, printing the bound port on startup, then connect to that one.
