Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: ModelTC
Product: LightLLM

Description

LightLLM through 1.2.0 mounts reinforcement learning control routes on the public HTTP API without authentication checks. Unauthenticated attackers can call endpoints like /pause_generation, /abort_request, /flush_cache, and /init_weights_update_group to disrupt inference operations and wedge workers on deployments started with --enable_rl.

Technical Analysis

LightLLM through version 1.2.0 exposes reinforcement learning control routes on its public HTTP API without requiring authentication. Attackers can call endpoints like /pause_generation, /abort_request, /flush_cache, and /init_weights_update_group without credentials, enabling them to interfere with inference workflows and disrupt deployed workers running with the --enable_rl option.

Potential Impact

Unauthenticated attackers can disrupt inference operations by invoking critical control functions, potentially causing denial of service or degraded performance in deployments using reinforcement learning features. This can wedge worker processes and interrupt normal model operation.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict network access to the affected API endpoints to trusted users only and avoid enabling reinforcement learning control routes on publicly accessible interfaces.
