LMCache through 0.5.5 contains a server-side request forgery vulnerability in its frontend monitoring service that allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass the proxy allowlist by registering arbitrary hosts. Attackers can add entries via POST /api/proxies and then use /proxy or /proxy2 to reach internal hosts, read responses, and tamper with nodes or stop the heartbeat.
