What is CVE-2024-9053?

The vllm version 0.6.0 is vulnerable due to its AsyncEngineRPCServer() RPC server entrypoints that improperly handle deserialization of messages. Specifically, the run_server_loop() function calls _make_handler_coro(), which uses cloudpickle.loads() on received data without proper sanitization. This oversight could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending maliciously crafted pickle data.
