SCA: security update for vllm (GHSA-2pc9-4j83-qjmr)

critical Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 436871

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- 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.
(CVE-2026-22807)

Solution

Update the vllm library and its related packages to version 0.14.0 or later.
