llama.cpp through commit 97f06e9, when started with the --reranking flag, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (std::bad_alloc and HTTP 500) via a negative top_n value in a POST request to /rerank.
llama.cpp builds b1886 through b7445 contain an integer overflow vulnerability in the LLaMA-Android JNI wrapper where the new_1batch() function multiplies sizeof(llama_seq_id) by an attacker-controlled n_seq_max parameter without overflow validation, causing heap buffer allocation to wrap and allocate insufficient memory. Attackers can exploit this by providing a crafted n_seq_max value through a malicious model file or JNI call to trigger heap corruption and achieve denial of service or arbitrary code execution on Android applications using the LLaMA-Android binding.
llama.cpp builds b1886 through b7445 contain a null pointer dereference vulnerability in the LLaMA-Android JNI wrapper where the bench_1model() function fails to validate the model context pointer before dereferencing it. Attackers can supply a malicious, corrupt, or truncated model file to trigger a null context condition, causing a SIGSEGV crash that terminates the Android application process and results in denial of service.
llama.cpp builds b1886 through b7445 contain a race condition use-after-free vulnerability in the LLaMA-Android JNI wrapper where bench_1model() and free_1context() lack synchronization, allowing Thread A to operate on freed memory while Thread B concurrently frees the llama_context. Attackers can exploit this by performing heap spray with attacker-controlled data containing a fake vtable to hijack the vtable pointer at offset +0x30, causing llama_batch_allocr::clear() to dereference arbitrary memory and achieve remote code execution.
llama.cpp builds b5702 through b7653 contain an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the recurrent memory state restore path that allows attackers with write access to the slot save directory to read memory past the end of the allocated cells array. Attackers can craft a malicious slot file with an oversized seq_id value to trigger an out-of-bounds read that leaks heap data including pointer values into server logs, defeating ASLR protections and facilitating further exploitation.
llama.cpp builds b7492 through the latest b9060 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the vocab pointer of llama-server when the --sleep-idle-seconds feature is enabled, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. Attackers can trigger the vulnerability by sending requests to affected endpoints while the server transitions to sleep mode, causing concurrent worker threads to dereference a freed vocab pointer that can be reclaimed with attacker-controlled data to achieve remote code execution.
llama.cpp builds b7492 through the latest b9060 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in llama-server affecting six tokenization endpoints (/tokenize, /detokenize, /infill, /apply-template, /rerank, and /anthropic/count_tokens) that bypass the task queue and access ctx_server.vocab directly on HTTP worker threads. Attackers can exploit a time-of-check-time-of-use race condition where the main thread destroys and frees vocab after the synchronization lock is released but before the handler finishes using it, causing a crash or potential code execution when --sleep-idle-seconds is configured.
llama.cpp builds b1283 through b9058 contain an integer overflow vulnerability in the llama_batch_init() function where unchecked multiplications in malloc() calls can wrap past INT32_MAX when computing allocation sizes. Attackers can pass specially crafted parameters to trigger integer overflow, causing heap corruption and potentially achieving arbitrary code execution through subsequent batch operations that write past allocated buffer boundaries.
