SGLang Exposes Unsafe Pickle Deserialization Leading RCE
Researchers disclosed on March 12, 2026 that SGLang, an open-source LLM and multimodal serving framework, contains unsafe pickle deserialization vulnerabilities tracked as CVE-2026-3059, CVE-2026-3060 and CVE-2026-3989. The flaws let attackers submit malicious .pkl files to ZeroMQ-based multimodal generation and encoder disaggregation modules, or to the replay_request_dump.py script, enabling unauthenticated remote code execution. Maintainers are advised to restrict access and replace pickle with safer serializers.
Scoring Rationale
Practical significance for LLM-serving security with actionable fixes, but limited scope to SGLang deployments and interfaces.
