SCA: security update for vllm (GHSA-hj4w-hm2g-p6w5)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 425770

Description

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

- vLLM is a high-throughput and memory-efficient inference and serving engine for LLMs. Versions starting
from 0.6.5 and prior to 0.8.5, having vLLM integration with mooncake, are vulnerable to remote code
execution due to using pickle based serialization over unsecured ZeroMQ sockets. The vulnerable sockets
were set to listen on all network interfaces, increasing the likelihood that an attacker is able to reach
the vulnerable ZeroMQ sockets to carry out an attack. vLLM instances that do not make use of the mooncake
integration are not vulnerable. This issue has been patched in version 0.8.5. (CVE-2025-32444)
