CVE-2026-93838CVE-2026-93838
Description
SGLang versions through 0.5.20 contain an unbounded memory allocation vulnerability in handle_staging_req() that fails to validate chunk_idx from ZMQ STAGING_REQ frames in prefill/decode disaggregation deployments. Attackers with access to the decode engine's internal ZMQ rank port can send a frame with an extremely large chunk_idx value, causing the scheduler to allocate memory until the system runs out and terminates the process.
