What is CVE-2025-62426?

The vulnerability in vLLM, an inference and serving engine for large language models, arises from unsecured API endpoints that accept unvalidated request parameters. Specifically, the endpoints /v1/chat/completions and /tokenize can be manipulated using the chat_template_kwargs request parameter. This manipulation can lead to prolonged server processing delays, effectively blocking the API server from handling other requests. The issue was addressed and patched in version 0.11.1, ensuring that robust validation mechanisms are now in place.
