CVE-2026-114054
HIGH 7.1vLLM before 0.31.0 contains a cache aliasing vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers to collide shared cache keys by supplying caller-controlled values such as EXIF ImageID or cache_salt. Attackers can set a UUID EXIF ImageID to receive another request's cached processed media, or match cache_salt to a LoRA name to reuse first-block KV state.
Severe if exploited (CVSS 7.1), but no known exploitation and low modeled probability. Patch on a normal cadence.
