Doc Text:	A flaw was found in llama-index-core where the get_cache_dir() function creates a hardcoded /tmp/llamda_index directory without secure permissions or user isolation. On Linux systems with multiple users, this allows attackers to steal cached models, poison embeddings, or perform symlink attacks leading to information disclosure or data corruption.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-09-27 17:01:15 UTC

The llama-index-core package, up to version 0.12.44, contains a vulnerability in the `get_cache_dir()` function where a predictable, hardcoded directory path `/tmp/llama_index` is used on Linux systems without proper security controls. This vulnerability allows attackers on multi-user systems to steal proprietary models, poison cached embeddings, or conduct symlink attacks. The issue affects all Linux deployments where multiple users share the same system. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-379, CWE-377, and CWE-367, indicating insecure temporary file creation and potential race conditions.
