CVE-2026-39909

Description

llama.cpp before b8585 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the RPC server's GRAPH_RECOMPUTE handler that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to achieve arbitrary read and write access by storing a computation graph, freeing referenced buffers, and reclaiming freed memory with attacker-controlled content. Attackers can send RPC requests to trigger re-execution of stored graphs with dangling pointers, enabling full remote code execution without requiring authentication or user interaction.
