CVE-2026-111391: SGLang code injection in _evaluate_filter()

CVE-2026-111391 · Severity: high · CVSS 8.1 · Published 2026-10-16

SGLang is a high-performance serving framework for large language models. Versions 0.5.10 through 0.5.22 contain a code injection vulnerability in the _evaluate_filter() function that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary Python code on the scheduler process. An attacker can exploit this by sending a crafted filter expression to the /dumper/configure endpoint when the DUMPER_SERVER_PORT is enabled, gaining complete control over the LLM serving infrastructure.

Technical details

The vulnerability is a Python code injection in the _evaluate_filter() function that fails to properly sandbox eval() operations. An attacker can escape the eval() sandbox through re.search __globals__ to access and execute arbitrary Python code. The vulnerable /dumper/configure endpoint is unauthenticated and processes filter expressions on the next forward pass of the scheduler process.
