CVE-2026-107207

LMCache through 0.5.5 contains a missing authentication vulnerability in the multiprocess coordinator that allows remote unauthenticated attackers to access its HTTP fleet control API listening on all interfaces by default. Attackers can register or deregister instances via /instances, overwrite quotas via /quota endpoints, inject events via /events, and enumerate /directory/keys to disrupt caching and disclose placement metadata.

LMCache through 0.5.5 contains a missing authentication vulnerability in the multiprocess mode HTTP server that allows remote unauthenticated attackers to access management endpoints listening on all interfaces by default. Attackers can read environment credentials via GET /env and configuration via GET /config, clear caches, delete cache objects, and modify tenant quotas to evict other tenants' cached data.

LMCache through 0.5.5 contains an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability that allows remote attackers to execute Python code by posting scripts to the /run_script endpoint. Attackers can recover real builtins through the injected FastAPI app object, bypassing the guarded __import__, to import os and run operating system commands as the LMCache process.

LMCache multiprocess mode opens an unauthenticated ZeroMQ ROUTER for worker registration and KV cache sharing. Messages are msgpack, and extension code 1 is passed to DeviceIPCWrapper.Deserialize, which calls pickle.loads before the handler runs. A single unauthenticated ZMQ DEALER message to the transport port (default 5555) executes code as the LMCache user. Official containers run as root. The transport binds to localhost unless --host is set for multi-node deployments.

Vulnerability in LMCache up to 0.4.6. The hex_hash_to_int16 function in lmcache/integration/vllm/utils.py (KV Cache Handler component) uses a weak hash. Attack requires local access and high complexity. Exploit is publicly available.
