Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
vLLM versions 0.10.1 up to but not including 0.18.0 are affected. Two model implementation files hardcode trust_remote_code=True when loading sub-components, so a user who set trust-remote-code to False can still have arbitrary Python code run when vLLM loads a malicious model repository. Upgrade to vLLM 0.18.0 or later, which contains the fix.
