CVE-2024-9052
CRITICAL9.8vLLM deserialization vulnerability in vllm.distributed.GroupCoordinator.recv_object
Published: 3/20/2025Modified: 2/4/2026
Description
vllm-project vllm version 0.6.0 contains a vulnerability in the distributed training API. The function vllm.distributed.GroupCoordinator.recv_object() deserializes received object bytes using pickle.loads() without sanitization, leading to a remote code execution vulnerability. ### Maintainer perspective Note that vLLM does NOT use the code as described in the report on huntr. The problem only exists if you use these internal APIs in a way that exposes them to a network as described. The vllm team was not involved in the analysis of this report and the decision to assign it a CVE.
