CVE-2026-92558: Kong Gateway Enterprise cache key injection via separator characters

CVE-2026-92558 · Severity: info · Published 2026-11-10

Kong Gateway Enterprise and Kong AI Gateway's proxy-cache and proxy-cache-advanced plugins fail to properly escape separator characters when generating cache keys, allowing an attacker to manipulate which cached responses are served. An attacker can craft requests that cause a response cached for one legitimate request to be served to a different request, potentially exposing sensitive data or bypassing security controls.

Technical details

The proxy-cache and proxy-cache-advanced plugins in Kong Gateway build cache keys by concatenating request parameters without properly escaping separator characters. This allows cache key collisions where different requests generate the same or overlapping cache keys. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send crafted requests to trigger unintended cache hits, causing responses intended for one request to be served to another on the same Route.
