CVE-2026-22807: vLLM affected by RCE via auto_map dynamic module loading during model initialization
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 39/100)
- Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.98% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 62.3% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: vllm (PyPI) 0.14.0.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to vllm (PyPI) 0.14.0 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
vLLM is an inference and serving engine for large language models (LLMs). Starting in version 0.10.1 and prior to version 0.14.0, vLLM loads Hugging Face `auto_map` dynamic modules during model resolution without gating on `trust_remote_code`, allowing attacker-controlled Python code in a model repo/path to execute at server startup. An attacker who can influence the model repo/path (local directory or remote Hugging Face repo) can achieve arbitrary code execution on the vLLM host during model load. This happens before any request handling and does not require API access. Version 0.14.0 fixes the issue.
