GHSA-ggpf-24jw-3fcw: CVE-2025-24357 Malicious model remote code execution fix bypass with PyTorch < 2.6.0
https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm/security/advisories/GHSA-rh4j-5rhw-hr54 reported a vulnerability where loading a malicious model could result in code execution on the vllm host. The fix applied to specify weights_only=True to calls to torch.load() did not solve the problem prior to PyTorch 2.6.0.
PyTorch has issued a new CVE about this problem: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-53q9-r3pm-6pq6
This means that versions of vLLM using PyTorch before 2.6.0 are vulnerable to this problem.
