Once the nccl mode is enabled the RPyC channel is unauthenticated and network-reachable with trivial pickle exploitation (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), giving full RCE as the service account (C/I/A:H); the config gate affects likelihood, not base metrics.

LightLLM through 1.2.0 contains a remote code execution vulnerability in the KV-transfer worker when started with --pd_trans_mode nccl, which exposes an unauthenticated RPyC control channel that deserializes attacker-supplied data. Attackers can send malicious pickled objects to the exposed RPyC ThreadedServer to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the LightLLM service account.

AnalysisAI
Remote code execution affects LightLLM deployments through version 1.2.0 that run the KV-transfer worker with the non-default '--pd_trans_mode nccl' option, which exposes an unauthenticated RPyC ThreadedServer control channel on the network. An attacker with network reachability can send a malicious pickled object to that channel, triggering unsafe deserialization and executing arbitrary code with the privileges of the LightLLM service account (CVSS 9.3; PR:N/UI:N). …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the LightLLM KV-transfer worker be started with '--pd_trans_mode nccl' (the NCCL-based prefill/decode disaggregation transfer mode), which causes the worker to expose an unauthenticated RPyC ThreadedServer control channel. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuine high-priority issue, not a high-CVSS paper tiger. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch version has been identified in the available data at time of analysis, so the most effective immediate action is to avoid the vulnerable configuration: do not start the LightLLM KV-transfer worker with '--pd_trans_mode nccl', or if NCCL-based prefill/decode disaggregation is required, restrict network access to the RPyC control port to trusted peers only (for example, bind it to a private interface and firewall it), accepting that this breaks the unauthenticated cross-node control channel the PD setup relies on and may require re-architecting the deployment. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory all LightLLM 1.2.0 installations and identify which are running with the non-default '--pd_trans_mode nccl' option; for those systems, immediately restrict network access to the RPyC ThreadedServer control channel (e.g., via firewall rules) to only trusted hosts, or disable the NCCL-based prefill/decode disaggregation if operationally feasible. …
