Description
llama.cpp b5854 before b11275 contains an integer overflow vulnerability in gguf_init_from_reader that bypasses the CVE-2025-53630 size check when padding near-SIZE_MAX tensor sizes. Attackers can supply a crafted GGUF file whose tensor size pads to zero, causing an undersized data blob and out-of-bounds reads by consumers.
