Fixes #1610

Issue: #1610

The visual-only RPyC service accepted caller-controlled pickle payloads while listening on a network address. This change:

  • replaces ImageItem pickle transport with a versioned, validated built-in tuple schema;
  • disables pickle and broad attribute mutation/access for the visual-only RPyC service;
  • restricts the exposed callback to an explicit event method;
  • validates image metadata, nested options, byte payloads, and batch limits before processing; and
  • cleans up every shared-memory allocation on completion or setup failure.

Tests:

  • python -m pytest -q unit_tests/server/test_visual_only_rpyc.py
  • black --check --line-length=120 on changed Python files
  • flake8 --max-line-length=120 on changed Python files
  • python -m py_compile on changed Python files

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved remote visual inference handling for image batches, including validation of image data and batch limits.
    • Image data and completion callbacks now work across remote connections.
    • Shared-memory resources are cleaned up after inference completes or fails, reducing the chance of leftover resources.
    • Remote visual servers now bind and register using a resolved host address when configured with 0.0.0.0.

📝 Walkthrough

The visual RPC path now sends versioned image payloads and validates them before inference. RPyC uses a restricted protocol configuration. The visual server tracks and cleans shared-memory segments and binds using its resolved RPC host.

Changes: Visual RPC transport

Layer / File(s) Summary
Versioned image payload contract
lightllm/server/visualserver/rpc_payload.py, unit_tests/server/test_visual_only_rpyc.py
Added versioned image batch packing and unpacking, recursive value validation, batch and container limits, and a RemoteEvent callback wrapper. Tests cover round trips, invalid payloads, and batch limits.
Restricted RPC transport and call sites
lightllm/server/visualserver/objs.py, lightllm/server/visualserver/proxy_manager.py, lightllm/server/visualserver/model_infer/model_rpc_client.py, lightllm/server/visualserver/model_infer/model_rpc.py, unit_tests/server/test_visual_only_rpyc.py
Added a restricted RPyC configuration. The proxy and model RPC client pack image batches, and the model RPC endpoint unpacks them. Tests cover RPyC payload transport, callback signaling, and rejection of a malicious pickle payload.
Visual inference validation and cleanup
lightllm/server/visualserver/visual_only_manager.py
The visual server validates incoming image payloads, tracks shared-memory segments, and cleans them up after inference completion or synchronous failure. It uses a resolved RPC host for registration and server binding.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 2de32

This change removes pickle-based deserialization from the visual-only RPC service and adds strict payload validation, which substantially reduces the remote-code-execution exposure. One gap remains: a client can still send a very large image byte payload, which may exhaust memory on the visual server. Add per-image and total size limits, and ideally a transport-level message cap, when convenient. The service also still has no authentication, as it did before this change.

Explanation

The changes stay within the visual-only RPyC hardening scope from issue [#1610]. The payload helpers, model RPC packing and unpacking, restricted protocol configuration, explicit RemoteEvent callback, shared-memory cleanup, and focused tests support the changed transport and service behavior. No unrelated change is demonstrated.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue [#1610] requires the visual-only RPyC service to remove pickle and broad attribute access, bind to localhost, and validate the exposed image-inference arguments. The change sets allow_pickle to false, disables unrestricted attribute mutation and access, uses a versioned tuple schema, validates image data and limits, and removes obtain(). However, VisualOnlyManager resolves args.host == "0.0.0.0" with get_hostname_ip() and passes that address as hostname to ThreadedServer. This binds to the host IP, not localhost, so a reachable network peer can still access the service.

Resolution

Bind the visual-only RPyC ThreadedServer to a loopback address, such as 127.0.0.1, and use the matching loopback address for related local registration. Preserve the schema validation and restricted protocol configuration.

Limit image payload bytes before allocation.

A caller can put an arbitrarily large bytes value in one valid image record. The batch and container-count limits do not restrict that value. exposed_remote_infer_images then copies it into shared memory, so one request can exhaust memory. Enforce per-image and total byte limits. Also bound the RPyC frame size: RPyC reconstructs tuple values before this validator runs. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Keep remote callback calls off the inference event loop.

handle.add_done_callback(_callback) normally runs _callback on self.new_loop. The callback then calls the client-owned RPyC netref ref_event.set() synchronously. A slow client can block the inference event loop and delay _cleanup_shared_memory().

Run the notification outside the inference event-loop thread, and release the tracked segments independently of the client's response. This callback and ordering already existed in the base revision, so the PR does not introduce the blocking behavior.

Review comment at @lightllm/server/visualserver/visual_only_manager.py around
lines 177 - 179:
Update the _callback flow so the client-owned ref_event.set() notification runs
outside the inference event-loop thread, and ensure _cleanup_shared_memory()
runs independently of the notification’s response or completion.
