WebAssembly, sometimes called Wasm, is a portable, low-level binary code instruction format executed in a web browser’s virtual machine (VM). It enables developers to write high-performance code in various languages and runs alongside JavaScript. 


Developers are embracing WebAssembly for its ability to accelerate complex algorithms, enable gaming and multimedia applications, and provide a secure sandbox environment for running untrusted code. However, before adopting WebAssembly, it’s crucial to consider its security implications and how to mitigate the risks.
