LMCache multiprocess mode runs pickle.loads on whatever reaches its unauthenticated socket

JFrog disclosed an unauthenticated remote code execution flaw in LMCache's multiprocess mode, CVE-2026-105192, rated CVSS 9.8 with no patch. A public proof of concept exists, so any deployment that exposes the cache server to a network needs access limits or the mode turned off.

PoeLLM botnet has turned more than 2,100 exposed servers into miners and scanners

Lumen's Black Lotus Labs says the PoeLLM cryptomining botnet has compromised more than 2,100 servers, many running exposed LiteLLM or Ollama. Each host it takes then mines and scans for the next, so an AI server left open to the internet is attack surface to lock down.

Google traces most of 2026's exploitation growth to fast n-day weaponization

Google's threat intelligence group counts 18 exploited flaws a month in 2026, up from 10.5 in 2025, while zero-days rose only from eight to 11. GTIG attributes most of the added attacks to fast weaponization of disclosed n-days, so the exposure sits in the days after a patch ships.
