An issue exists where the system fails to validate that `min tokens` is less than or equal to `max tokens` when the `/inference/v1/generate` endpoint receives a null `max tokens` value. This leads to an uncaught `VLLMValidationError` that causes the EngineCore input thread to crash. Consequently, while the `/health` endpoint continues to report a healthy status, all subsequent generation requests are hung. Unauthenticated remote attackers can trigger this state by sending a single request with an oversized `min tokens` value.
