CVE-2025-32381: xgrammar Vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) by abusing unbounded cache in memory

April 9, 2025

Xgrammar includes a cache for compiled grammars to increase performance with repeated use of the same grammar. This cache is held in memory. Since the cache is unbounded, a system making use of xgrammar can be abused to fill up a host’s memory and case a denial of service. For example, sending many small requests to an LLM inference server with unique JSON schemas would eventually cause this denial of service to occur.
