Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

vLLM versions before 0.7.2 use Python's built-in hash() for prefix caching, and on Python 3.12 the hash of None is a predictable constant, making collisions easier to engineer. An attacker who can submit crafted prompts could cause cached content from one prompt to be reused for another, potentially affecting responses. Upgrade vLLM to 0.7.2 or later.
