CVE-2026-107204
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.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.77%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
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.
