Access of Resource Using Incompatible Type in Hermes

Publisher and source text is retained separately from QFinch interpretation.

QFinch assessment

By passing invalid javascript code where await and yield were called upon non-async and non-generator getter/setter functions, Hermes would invoke generator functions and error out on invalid await/yield positions. This could result in segmentation fault as a consequence of type confusion error, with a low chance of RCE. This issue affects Hermes versions prior to v0.10.0.
