Firecracker VMs run on AWS. Odd that the article doesn't mention that.
Firecracker is open source and possibly others use it, AWS sells services with it though.
(A more complete way to say this is that Firecracker is the engine built to run AWS Lambda and AWS Fargate).
It has notable adoption in the agent sandbox space where this type of vulnerability is especially volatile.
> The target was Firecracker v1.16.1 on x86-64, with host kernel 7.0.0-1011-aws.
Firecracker v1.17.0 was released 10 September, so the version is ancient.
Do you even know what ancient means? 2 months is ancient for you? Are you like 6?
Yes, 2 months is ancient if 0 days is the game.
Fly uses it too afaik
Basically everyone in cloud-land uses it at this point.
And should jail/SE.

The article is light on details, it is LLM slop.
