vLLM is an inference and serving engine for large language models (LLMs). In version 0.8.0 up to but excluding 0.9.0, the vLLM backend used with the /v1/chat/completions OpenAPI endpoint fails to validate unexpected or malformed input in the "pattern" and "type" fields when the tools functionality is invoked. These inputs are not validated before being compiled or parsed, causing a crash of the inference worker with a single request. The worker will remain down until it is restarted. Version 0.9.0 fixes the issue.

GHSA-vrq3-r879-7m65 — vLLM Tool Schema allows DoS via Malformed pattern and type Fields

2026-10-17T09:58:57.138770+00:00

Affected: PyPI: vllm

### Summary The vLLM backend used with the /v1/chat/completions OpenAPI endpoint fails to validate unexpected or malformed input in the "pattern" and "type" fields when the tools functionality is invoked. These inputs are not validated before being compiled or parsed, causing a crash of the inference worker with a single request. The worker will remain down until it is restarted.

### Details The "type" field is expected to be one of: "string", "number", "object", "boolean", "array", or "null". Supplying any other value will cause the worker to crash with the following error:

RuntimeError: [11:03:34] /project/cpp/json_schema_converter.cc:637: Unsupported type "something_or_nothing"

The "pattern" field undergoes Jinja2 rendering (I think) prior to being passed unsafely into the native regex compiler without validation or escaping. This allows malformed expressions to reach the underlying C++ regex engine, resulting in fatal errors.

For example, the following inputs will crash the worker:

Unclosed {, [, or (

Closed:{} and []

Here are some of runtime errors on the crash depending on what gets injected:

RuntimeError: [12:05:04] /project/cpp/regex_converter.cc:73: Regex parsing error at position 4: The parenthesis is not closed. RuntimeError: [10:52:27] /project/cpp/regex_converter.cc:73: Regex parsing error at position 2: Invalid repetition count. RuntimeError: [12:07:18] /project/cpp/regex_converter.cc:73: Regex parsing error at position 6: Two consecutive repetition mo…
