Description
vLLM 0.30.0 before 0.31.0 contains a resource exhaustion vulnerability in OpenCVDynamicOpenPanguVideoBackend, which uses request-controlled num_frames without an effective ceiling. Unauthenticated attackers can send /v1/chat/completions or /tokenize requests selecting the openpangu video_backend with a huge num_frames, forcing np.linspace allocations and CPU work that OOM-kill the API server.
