CVE-2026-4944 Details
Description
vllm-project/vllm version 0.14.1 contains a vulnerability where the `trust_remote_code=True` parameter is hardcoded in two model implementation files (`vllm/model_executor/models/nemotron_vl.py` and `vllm/model_executor/models/kimi_k25.py`). This bypasses the user's explicit `--trust-remote-code=False` setting, enabling remote code execution via malicious HuggingFace model repositories. This issue is an incomplete fix for CVE-2025-66448 and CVE-2026-22807, as it affects separate code paths in model implementation files. Deployments loading NemotronVL or KimiK25 models are particularly impacted.
A remote code execution vulnerability exists in vllm-project/vllm version 0.14.1, where the 'trust_remote_code=True' parameter is hardcoded in the model implementation files 'vllm/model_executor/models/nemotron_vl.py' and 'vllm/model_executor/models/kimi_k25.py'. This hardcoding bypasses the user's explicit 'trust_remote_code=False' setting, allowing remote code execution through malicious Hugging Face model repositories. The vulnerability arises from an incomplete fix for two prior CVEs, affecting deployments that load NemotronVL or KimiK25 models without the 'trust_remote_code' option.
The hardcoded 'trust_remote_code=True' should be replaced with the user's configured setting. For 'nemotron_vl.py', modify the vision model initialization to respect the user's 'trust_remote_code' preference. For 'kimi_k25.py', update the image processor loading to use the correct 'trust_remote_code' setting from the model configuration.
