Simon Willison’s Weblog reports the release of llm 0.37.2, describing it as a security update for an issue reported by Daniel de Araujo involving API-key handling when the tool connects to OpenAI-compatible services from other providers.

The report says the issue affected llm’s extra-openai-models.yaml mechanism, now managed through the llm openai endpoint add command. That mechanism supports the use of OpenAI-compatible API endpoints from other providers. According to the report, the problem created two possible exposure paths for a configured OpenAI API key.

One path occurred when the key identified by apikeyname had never been stored, while the other occurred when a model configured with responses: true was run with -o chatcompletions 1. Simon Willison’s Weblog links the report to GitHub advisories GHSA-v9h7-jj4g-f862 and GHSA-r639-rr7r-x72w.
