NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tritonserver-backend-vllm-cuda-13.0 package and not the tritonserver-backend-vllm-cuda-13.0 package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

vLLM is an inference and serving engine for large language models (LLMs). From 0.7.0 to before 0.19.0, the VideoMediaIO.load_base64() method at vllm/multimodal/media/video.py splits video/jpeg data URLs by comma to extract individual JPEG frames, but does not enforce a frame count limit. The num_frames parameter (default: 32), which is enforced by the load_bytes() code path, is completely bypassed in the video/jpeg base64 path. An attacker can send a single API request containing thousands of comma-separated base64-encoded JPEG frames, causing the server to decode all frames into memory and crash with OOM. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.19.0.
