## What is CVE-2026-73558?

CVE-2026-73558 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Vllm Vllm, published on 13 Aug 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

### Official description

vLLM is an inference and serving engine for large language models. Prior to 0.27.0, an integer overflow in blockIdx.x * 2 * d in activation_kernels.cu can cause act_and_mul_kernel to consume another batched user's input, allowing a request processed in the same inference batch to receive a partial or complete copy of another user's inference result. This issue is fixed in version 0.27.0.

Weakness: CWE-190 (Integer Overflow or Wraparound)

Check this codebase for CVE-2026-73558 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2026-73558 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Vllm Vllm, published on 13 Aug 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.
Exploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-73558 exists.

Affected packages and fixed versions:
- vllm (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.27.0
- vllm (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.27.0
- vllm (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.27.0

Task:
1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.
2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
