Red Hat Ai Inference Server
Monthly
Image input manipulation in vLLM's multimodal preprocessing pipeline allows remote, unauthenticated network attackers to craft images with specific EXIF orientation or PNG tRNS transparency metadata that, when converted to RGB by vLLM, produces semantically altered image content fed to the LLM - affecting the integrity of inference outputs and potentially the reliability of the inference service. Affected deployments include Red Hat AI Inference Server across RHEL AI 3 and Red Hat OpenShift AI (RHOAI) environments. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog; however, sensitive inference workloads processing user-supplied images (e.g., document classification, content moderation) face a higher practical risk from subtle input distortion attacks.
