CVE-2025-49847 Information

Description

llama.cpp is an inference of several LLM models in C/C++. Prior to version b5662 an attacker-supplied GGUF model vocabulary can trigger a buffer overflow in llama.cpp’s vocabulary-loading code. Specifically the helper _try_copy in llama.cpp/src/vocab.cpp: llama_vocab::impl::token_to_piece() casts a very large size_t token length into an int32_t causing the length check (if (length < (int32_t)size)) to be bypassed. As a result memcpy is still called with that oversized size letting a malicious model overwrite memory beyond the intended buffer. This can lead to arbitrary memory corruption and potential code execution. This issue has been patched in version b5662.
