I had an aircraft filed IFR to NUQ airport. I asked the pilot if they were actually landing NUQ because that requires a PPR (Prior Permission Required) and its unusual for an Aircraft X to land at NUQ. The pilot; or who I assume was the instructor informed me that they wanted to fly the ILS Approach and break off the approach; cancel IFR and fly VFR to SQL. What I failed to notice was that the ILS for NUQ was out of service. I transferred control to the Arrival Sector who then cleared the aircraft for the ILS. The aircraft somehow descended on a nonexistent glideslope and had a MVA (Minimum Vectoring Altitude) violation. Tower informed Arrival Control about the issue and then re-sequenced the aircraft. I wasn't aware about the MVA violation until I was informed by the supervisor the next day. The status information display is full of information and I missed the ILS being out.
