NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream vllm-wheels package and not the vllm-wheels package as distributed by Minimos. See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

vLLM through 0.29.0 fails to properly clean up decode-side metadata for rejected inference requests in prefill/decode disaggregated deployments. Remote attackers can submit requests with max_tokens=0 to exhaust decode-worker memory without bound until the worker restarts.
