Ollama < 0.1.29 DNS Rebinding

medium Nessus Plugin ID 200186

Language:

Synopsis

The Ollama instance installed on the remote host is affected by a DNS rebinding vulnerability.

Description

The version of Ollama installed on the remote host is prior to 0.1.29. It is, therefore, affected by a DNS rebinding vulnerability. Ollama before 0.1.29 has a DNS rebinding vulnerability that can inadvertently allow remote access to the full API, thereby letting an unauthorized user chat with a large language model, delete a model, or cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion).

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Ollama version 0.1.29 or later.
