Ollama Servers Expose Remote Code Execution Risk

Security researchers on January 30, 2026 reported that roughly 175,000 Ollama servers are publicly accessible, exposing management interfaces and enabling potential remote code execution and unauthorized access. The exposure stems from simple administrator configuration changes in the open-source Ollama framework, which runs AI models locally. The finding raises widespread risk of compromise for external systems and urges immediate configuration audits and access controls.
