vLLM before 0.29.0 Denial of Service via out-of-range stop_token_ids
Historical advisory recorded 23 Oct 2026 15:48:27 UTC. Read the latest advisory.
cve-program · CVE-2026-100654
PublishedvLLM before 0.29.0 accepts user-controlled stop_token_ids on the OpenAI-compatible POST /v1/completions and POST /v1/chat/completions endpoints but validates only that the values are integers, not that each token id is within the model vocabulary/logits range. When min_tokens > 0, the stop token ids are used as logits indices to suppress stop tokens, so an out-of-range id reaches a CUDA indexing operation (index_put_) and triggers a device-side assertion. An authenticated API user can send a single malformed completion request that returns 500 Internal Server Error and puts EngineCore into a fatal state, causing subsequent requests to fail until the service is restarted (denial of service).
