Original description

llama.cpp before b11393 contains a use-after-free and double free vulnerability in common_chat_peg_mapper::map that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to corrupt heap memory via a dangling current_tool pointer. Attackers can submit a chat_parser in a POST /completion request emitting a tool-id after a tool-close tag to crash llama-server and shape a heap write primitive.
