# Kong Gateway: proxy cache can serve one user's response to another

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-92558 (this .md is for agents)

The proxy-cache and proxy-cache-advanced plugins in Kong Gateway Enterprise and Kong AI Gateway build cache keys without escaping separator characters. A remote attacker can make a response cached for one request get served for a different request on the same Route.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check whether the `proxy-cache` or `proxy-cache-advanced` plugin is enabled on any Route or Service in Kong Gateway Enterprise or Kong AI Gateway.

## From the sources

The proxy-cache and proxy-cache-advanced plugins in Kong Gateway Enterprise and Kong AI Gateway do not escape separator characters when building the cache key, allowing a remote attacker to cause a response cached for one request to be served for a different request on the same Route.
