Overview

vllm is an A high-throughput and memory-efficient inference and serving engine for LLMs

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Reachable Assertion via _parse_and_validate_image_input in deepseek_ocr.py and deepseek_ocr2.py, where a zero-sum pixel tensor causes the function to return None, which then triggers an AssertionError in sanity_check_mm_encoder_outputs and crashes the engine worker. An authenticated attacker can submit an image whose pixel values sum to zero to bring down the inference server.
