- severity: low

- lookups: matched 0, fixed 0, not fixed 0

## Statements (checkable)
0. The Next.js error page says eval(), new Function() and compiling WASM binaries dynamically are not allowed in Proxy (formerly middleware); WebAssembly.compile and WebAssembly.instantiate with a buffer are listed as unsupported.  [✓0 ✗0]
1. The documented fix is to bundle WASM binaries with an import (for example import squareWasm from ./square.wasm?module) and instantiate the imported module.  [✓0 ✗0]

## Fix
```text
Remove eval/new Function from code that runs in proxy.ts or Edge routes (check dependencies too), import WASM as a module, or move the code to the Node.js runtime.
```

## Error signatures
