CVE-2026-33298.yaml
1 info: 2 name: llama-cpp 3 cve: CVE-2026-33298 4 summary: "llama.cpp: integer overflow in ggml_nbytes allows heap buffer overflow via crafted GGUF file" 5 details: >- 6 llama.cpp prior to build b7824 contains an integer overflow vulnerability in the 7 ggml_nbytes function. An attacker can craft a malicious GGUF file with specific tensor 8 dimensions to cause ggml_nbytes to return a significantly smaller size than required 9 (e.g., 4MB instead of Exabytes), bypassing memory validation. This leads to a 10 heap-based buffer overflow when the application subsequently processes the tensor, 11 potentially resulting in Remote Code Execution (RCE) via memory corruption. 12 The vulnerability requires user interaction (opening a crafted GGUF file) and has 13 a local attack vector with CVSS score 7.8 (HIGH). No public PoC has been identified 14 at the time of reporting. CWE classifications: CWE-190 (Integer Overflow), CWE-122 15 (Heap-based Buffer Overflow). 16 cvss: "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H" 17 severity: HIGH 18 security_advise: >- 19 Upgrade llama.cpp to build b7824 or later. Do not load GGUF files from untrusted sources. 20 The fix is available at: https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/releases/tag/b7824 21 references: 22 - https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/security/advisories/GHSA-96jg-mvhq-q7q7 23 - https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/releases/tag/b7824 24 - https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-33298 25 rule: "" 26 references: 27 - https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/security/advisories/GHSA-96jg-mvhq-q7q7 28 - https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-33298
