CVE-2026-53923 Details
Description
vLLM is an inference and serving engine for large language models (LLMs). From 0.5.5 until 0.23.1rc0, integer truncation of tensor dimensions in vLLM's GGUF dequantize kernels (csrc/quantization/gguf/gguf_kernel.cu) causes partial tensor processing. The output tensor is allocated at full size via torch::empty (uninitialized memory), but the dequantize CUDA kernel processes only a truncated number of elements. The unfilled portion of the output tensor retains whatever was previously in GPU memory. In multi-tenant inference deployments, this residual GPU memory may contain tensor data from other users' inference requests, constituting information disclosure. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.23.1rc0.
A vulnerability in vLLM, an inference engine for large language models, allows for information disclosure through residual GPU memory. This issue arises from integer truncation of tensor dimensions in the GGUF dequantize kernels, leading to partial processing of output tensors. The unfilled portions of these tensors, allocated with uninitialized memory, can retain data from previous operations, potentially including information from other users' inference requests in multi-tenant deployments. The vulnerability affects vLLM versions 0.5.5 prior to 0.23.1rc0 and has been patched in 0.23.1rc0.
Users can upgrade to vLLM version 0.23.1rc0 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
