CNA: EchoOllama heap out-of-bounds read in GGUF tensor parsing leaks server process memory to unauthenticated remote attackers
03 Exploitation and scoring
SRC: CISA, FIRST, NVD, RED HAT- Exploitation
- Assessed, none found. CISA's assessment recorded neither public exploit code nor evidence of exploitation when it was made.
- SSVC decision
- ExploitationnoneCISA recorded no public exploit code and no evidence of exploitation.
- AutomatableyesAn attacker can reliably automate reconnaissance through exploitation, so this scales.
- Technical ImpacttotalSuccessful exploitation gives total control of the vulnerable component.
CISA publishes the decision points, not a final SSVC decision. The decision also depends on mission and well-being impact, which is a property of your deployment rather than of the vulnerability.- EPSS probability
- 2.24% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
- EPSS percentile
- Ranks above 81.5% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
- NVD base score
- 8.8 (CVSS v4.0), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.
- NVD CVSS vector

- NVD analysis status
- Analyzed. NVD last modified this record on 2026-06-17.
- Red Hat severity
- Critical. Red Hat's rating for its own products, not a CVSS rating.
Exploit-prediction scores from FIRST. Independent scoring and analysis status from the NVD. Vendor severity from Red Hat. Exploitation assessment and catalog membership from CISA.

Upgrade to ollama 0.17.1 or later. The fix in PR #14406 validates that declared tensor offset+size do not exceed the GGUF file size before reading, and adds a length check in the quantizer prior to the unsafe read.
