CVE-2026-70638

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

llama.cpp builds b1886 through b7445 contain an integer overflow vulnerability in the LLaMA-Android JNI wrapper where the new_1batch() function multiplies sizeof(llama_seq_id) by an attacker-controlled n_seq_max parameter without overflow validation, causing heap buffer allocation to wrap and allocate insufficient memory. Attackers can exploit this by providing a crafted n_seq_max value through a malicious model file or JNI call to trigger heap corruption and achieve denial of service or arbitrary code execution on Android applications using the LLaMA-Android binding.

      "value": "Las compilaciones b1886 a b7445 de llama.cpp contienen una vulnerabilidad de desbordamiento de entero en el wrapper JNI de LLaMA-Android, donde la función new_1batch() multiplica sizeof(llama_seq_id) por un parámetro n_seq_max controlado por el atacante sin validación de desbordamiento, lo que provoca que la asignación del búfer de la pila se ajuste y asigne memoria insuficiente. Los atacantes pueden explotar esto al proporcionar un valor n_seq_max manipulado a través de un archivo de modelo malicioso o una llamada JNI para desencadenar la corrupción de la pila y lograr la denegación de servicio o la ejecución de código arbitrario en aplicaciones Android que utilizan el binding de LLaMA-Android."
