CVE-2026-78684

Unauthenticated attackers can activate DeepStream at request time to initialize the process-wide GPU decode pool and submit video that bypasses resource controls, causing partial denial of service for concurrent requests.

MEDIUM 6.9EPSS 0.61%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.61%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

vLLM before 0.27.0 fails to properly classify DeepStream as a GPU backend and omits pixel-limit enforcement in its decode path. Unauthenticated attackers can activate DeepStream at request time to initialize the process-wide GPU decode pool and submit video that bypasses resource controls, causing partial denial of service for concurrent requests.
