CVE-2024-11041: vLLM Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability

vllm-project vllm version v0.6.2 contains a vulnerability in the MessageQueue.dequeue() API function. The function uses pickle.loads to parse received sockets directly, leading to a remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this by sending a malicious payload to the MessageQueue, causing the victim’s machine to execute arbitrary code.
