CVE-2025-71379
4.3 · MEDIUMOverview
CVE-2025-71379 is a medium-severity vulnerability affecting vllm vllm. It was published on June 20, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.3 (MEDIUM).
This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.3, rated MEDIUM. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.
Technical Description
vLLM versions >= 0.6.3 and < 0.9.0 contain multiple regular expression denial of service (ReDoS) vulnerabilities. Several regex patterns — in vllm/lora/utils.py, the phi4mini tool parser, and the OpenAI-compatible serving chat endpoint — are susceptible to catastrophic backtracking. An attacker submitting crafted input with nested or repeated structures can trigger severe CPU consumption and performance degradation, resulting in denial of service.
Remediation
Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from vllm. Update vllm to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
