Summary

LightLLM through 1.2.0 by ModelTC deserializes untrusted data (CWE-502) when a request to the /generate endpoint supplies the internal pd_kv_trans_params field. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send a single request that makes pickle.loads fail, which kills the inference thread so that later requests hang until restart. A public exploit is linked in the references.

Description from the CNA

LightLLM through 1.2.0 contains a denial of service vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to crash the inference worker by supplying the internal pd_kv_trans_params field to the /generate endpoint. Attackers can send a single request whose parameters cause pickle.loads to fail in InferSamplingParams, killing the inference thread while /health stays up and all later requests hang until restart.
