GHSA-wxxx-gvqv-xp7p: LiteLLM has a sandbox escape in custom-code guardrail

OSV AI package advisories · observation · May 11, 2026 · UTC

### Impact The `POST /guardrails/test_custom_code` endpoint runs user-supplied Python inside a hand-rolled sandbox. The sandbox can be escaped using bytecode-level techniques, allowing arbitrary code execution in the proxy process — which runs as root in the default Docker image. **Reaching the endpoint requires a proxy-admin credential** in default configurations. ### Patches Fixed in **`1.83.11`**. The hand-rolled sandbox has been replaced with `RestrictedPython`. Upgrade to `1.83.11` or later. ### Workarounds If upgrading is not immediately possible, block `POST /guardrails/test_custom_code
