Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Versions of vllm from 0.5.0 before 0.11.0 are affected by a server-side request forgery flaw in the MediaConnector class, where the load_from_url and load_from_url_async methods fetch user-supplied URLs without adequate host restrictions. An attacker who can submit requests to the server can make it send requests to internal network resources, which could expose internal services or enable network scanning. Upgrade to vllm 0.11.0 or later. As a workaround, the --allowed-media-domains option can restrict which domains media URLs may point to.
