You can now store up to 20 million vectors in a single Vectorize index, doubling the previous limit of 10 million vectors. This enables larger-scale semantic search, recommendation systems, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) applications without splitting data across multiple indexes.
Vectorize continues to support indexes with up to 1,536 dimensions per vector at 32-bit precision. Refer to the Vectorize limits documentation for complete details.
This release introduces new rules and updates Microsoft SharePoint RCE alongside enhanced SSRF cloud protection rule actions.
Key Findings
CVE-2026-50522: An insecure deserialization vulnerability in Microsoft SharePoint Server. This may allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code using crafted requests.
CVE-2026-66066: An improper input processing vulnerability in Ruby on Rails Active Storage image variant transformations. This may allow an unauthenticated attacker to perform arbitrary file reads and achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE) using maliciously crafted payload requests.
wrangler dev and vite dev automatically capture structured OpenTelemetry traces and correlated console logs during local Worker invocations.
Debug with AI agents
When the tooling detects an AI agent session, it prints a terminal hint pointing to the Local Explorer API at /cdn-cgi/explorer/api. The API serves an OpenAPI schema and exposes a read-only observability query endpoint for discovering telemetry, querying traces and logs, and inspecting binding state.
The agent can identify the exact failing operation, fix the code, rerun the request, and verify the result. This debug loop requires no deployment or temporary logs.
Inspect traces in Local Explorer
Humans can inspect the same traces and correlated console logs in the Local Explorer browser UI. Each trace shows spans, timing, attributes, and errors.
Automatic spans cover handler calls, outbound fetch() calls, and binding calls. Custom spans appear alongside these automatic spans.
Workers now enable the nodejs_compat and nodejs_compat_v2 compatibility
flags by default for compatibility dates
of 2026-08-04 or later. These flags are not used for these compatibility
dates because the compatibility date enables the same behavior.
This means all Node.js built-in APIs supported
by the Workers runtime are available by default, including node:crypto,
node:buffer, node:stream, node:net, node:dns, node:fs, node:http,
and more. npm packages that depend on these APIs will work without additional
configuration.
Workers using an earlier compatibility date are not affected. They can still
opt in by adding nodejs_compat to compatibility_flags.
New projects do not need to add either flag. Existing projects can update their
compatibility date without removing them. Wrangler, Miniflare, the Cloudflare
Vite plugin, and Vitest Pool Workers ignore these redundant flags when starting
the runtime.
To turn off Node.js compatibility completely, remove any nodejs_compat and
nodejs_compat_v2 flags. Then add both of the following flags:
{ "$schema": "./node_modules/wrangler/config-schema.json", // Set this to today's date "compatibility_date": "2026-08-26", "compatibility_flags": [ "no_nodejs_compat", "no_nodejs_compat_v2" ]}
# Set this to today's datecompatibility_date = "2026-08-26"compatibility_flags = ["no_nodejs_compat", "no_nodejs_compat_v2"]
wrangler login now supports the OAuth 2.0 Device Authorization Grant ↗. Pass --device to authenticate without starting a temporary callback server on localhost:8976:
npx wrangler login --device
Wrangler prints a verification URL and a short user code, opens the URL in your default browser with the code already filled in, and polls Cloudflare for an access token while you approve the request:
⛅️ wrangler 4.119.0────────────────────Attempting to login via OAuth Device Authorization Grant...To authorize Wrangler, please visit: https://dash.cloudflare.com/oauth2/deviceand enter the code: WDJB-MJHTYou have 5 minutes to approve this request.Opening a link in your default browser: https://dash.cloudflare.com/oauth2/device?user_code=WDJB-MJHTSuccessfully logged in.
The default login flow needs your browser to reach localhost:8976, which is not always possible from containers, remote SSH sessions, or GitHub Codespaces. Previously these environments required forwarding ports or fetching the callback URL with curl from a second terminal session. Because --device has no callback server, those workarounds are no longer necessary.
Since the plain verification URL and user code are both printed to the terminal, you can also approve the request from a phone or another machine. Pass --browser=false to stop Wrangler from opening a browser at all.
Available in Wrangler version 4.119.0 or later. For more information, refer to wrangler login.
Cloudflare Access administrators can now control whether a self-hosted application preemptively sets authorization cookies across its public hostnames.
Previously, Access automatically used eager redirects for applications with five or fewer hostnames. Applications with more than five hostnames received cookies as users visited each hostname. Administrators can now choose either behavior, regardless of the number of hostnames.
The new Eager redirect cookie setting is turned on by default for new applications. After a user signs in, Access redirects the browser through each hostname and sets a CF_Authorization cookie. This supports applications that need to make requests across hostnames before the user visits each one.
For applications with many hostnames, the redirect chain can cause sign-in loops in some browsers. Turn off the setting to issue the cookie only when a user visits each hostname.
We're releasing an early preview of @cloudflare/computer ↗, an open-source agent runtime that gives every agent its own computer. The runtime dynamically orchestrates between fast, efficient isolates and full Linux containers, so the agent always runs on the right compute primitive for the task at hand.
@cloudflare/computer provides a virtual filesystem backed by SQLite, which you can populate from cloud storage, source control, or any files you choose. Agents can read, write, and edit files, run shell commands, and interact with Git repositories. All operations are gated, audited, and observed.
Install the package via npm:
npm install @cloudflare/computer
Instantiate a Workspace inside any Durable Object to give your agent a filesystem and execution runtime:
import { Workspace } from "@cloudflare/computer";export class Agent { workspace = new Workspace({ storage: this.ctx.storage, });}
Several execution backends are included or you can write your own:
Isolate runtime — fast, horizontally scalable execution via just-bash and Dynamic Workers, ideal for file manipulation and data processing.
Container runtime — full Linux environment via Cloudflare Containers, mounted through FUSE, for tasks that need native binaries, package managers, or a complete userland.
The AI SDK-compatible toolkit provides common agent tools (read, write, edit, ls, exec) and guides the model to choose the appropriate backend for each task.
Load balancing analytics now shows traffic served by your fallback pool separately from traffic routed to the same pool by normal steering.
Previously, requests were grouped by pool name alone. If the pool acting as your fallback also received traffic through your steering policy, both appeared as a single series, so it was not obvious from the graph whether Cloudflare was still making health-based routing decisions or had fallen back to the pool of last resort. Because the fallback pool ignores health, that distinction matters when you are diagnosing an outage or reviewing how much traffic was shed.
Fallback traffic is now labeled with the pool name followed by (Fallback). A pool named eu-west, for example, is shown as eu-west (Fallback). This label appears as its own entry in:
Requests over time, as a separate series in the chart.
Pool distribution, as a separate segment.
Top endpoints, as a separate card for the pool.
The Latency view and the health event Logs are unchanged.
To see this, go to Traffic > Load Balancing Analytics for a zone. The same breakdown appears in the analytics view for an individual load balancer under Load Balancing at the account level.
Billing is now enabled for Cloudflare Pipelines on non-enterprise accounts. Pipelines usage beyond the included free tier will appear on your next invoice.
Pipelines charges based on two usage dimensions. Ingress into a Pipeline stream remains free regardless of volume:
Sinks (egress): $0.03 / GB for JSON output, $0.06 / GB for Parquet or Iceberg output.
Workers Paid plans include 50 GB / month for both SQL transforms and sinks. Standard R2 storage and operations charges apply for data written to R2 buckets, and R2 Data Catalog charges apply when writing to Iceberg tables.
For example, a pipeline that ingests 500 GB of event data per month, uses a SQL transform to filter and reshape it, and writes 300 GB to an R2 Data Catalog Iceberg table would be billed as follows:

Billing is now enabled for R2 Data Catalog on non-enterprise accounts. R2 Data Catalog usage beyond the included free tier will appear on your next invoice.
Catalog operations: $9.00 / million operations for metadata requests such as creating tables, reading table metadata, and updating table properties.
Compaction: $0.005 / GB processed and $2.00 / million objects processed. These charges only apply when automatic compaction is turned on for a table.
Each dimension includes a monthly free tier: 1 million catalog operations, 10 GB of compaction data processed, and 1 million compaction objects processed.
For example, a single Iceberg table with 50 GB of data, 500,000 catalog operations per month, and compaction turned on that processes 20 GB across 200,000 files would be billed as follows:

Billing is now enabled for R2 SQL on non-enterprise accounts. R2 SQL usage beyond the included free tier will appear on your next invoice.
R2 SQL charges based on a single dimension:
Data scanned: $0.0025 / GB ($2.50 / TB) of compressed data read from R2 to execute your query.
All plans include 10 GB of data scanned per month. Each query is billed for a minimum of 10 MB of data scanned. R2 SQL pricing is additive to standard R2 storage and operations and R2 Data Catalog charges. R2 does not charge for egress, so there is no additional data transfer cost.
For example, a user who stores 500 GB of Parquet data in R2 Data Catalog and runs queries that scan a total of 50 GB of compressed data during the month would be billed as follows:

You can now call methods between Python and JavaScript Workers using Workers RPC. This works through Service bindings without extra dependencies, schema definitions, or serialization code.
Cross-language RPC calls behave like ordinary function calls. Exceptions propagate to the call site. You can pass structured cloneable types ↗ as parameters or return values, and Pyodide Foreign Function Interface (FFI) automatically converts types between languages.
Call a TypeScript Worker from Python
Define a method in a TypeScript Worker:
index.jsjs
import { WorkerEntrypoint } from "cloudflare:workers";export class RpcService extends WorkerEntrypoint { async add(a, b) { return a + b; }}
index.tsts
import { WorkerEntrypoint } from "cloudflare:workers";export class RpcService extends WorkerEntrypoint { async add(a: number, b: number): Promise<number> { return a + b; }}
Call it from a Python Worker through a Service binding:
This beta release includes the following changes and improvements:
Improved connection reliability: the client now swaps protocol order after repeated connectivity-check failures, which helps when HTTP/3 is blocked after the QUIC handshake.
Fixed issue where a certificate error could be incorrectly displayed right after the connection is established.
Fixed a MASQUE issue where the tunnel could stall while uploading at a high rate.
Fixed being unable to switch organizations when the client was stuck in the "Device not in organization" state.
Fixed the Home Screen dropdown popup not anchoring correctly.
Fixed a crash during dialog dismissal.
Increased tolerance for configurations with a large number of local domain fallback resolver IPs, so DNS resolution behaves correctly even when more fallback resolvers are configured than recommended.
Fixed a networking issue where IPv6 multicast routes were being assigned to the WARP tunnel interface.
Fixed fatal errors on UI load on Windows 10.
Fixed a crash during Windows notification initialization.

Fixed the WARP client stealing window focus (for example, during reauth).
Fixed a client crash when connecting to a captive portal over Wi-Fi.
Fixed the system tray icon showing "disconnected" while the UI showed "connected".
A successful re-authentication will cause the device profile to be re-evaluated.
MCP server portals can now connect to upstream MCP servers that require a pre-registered OAuth client. This supports OAuth providers that do not offer Dynamic Client Registration or have disabled it. This unlocks portal connections to major SaaS providers such as Slack and GitHub, whose MCP servers do not yet support DCR.
When adding an MCP server, administrators can enter the client ID and client secret from an OAuth application registered with the upstream provider. The configuration also supports custom OAuth endpoints, scopes, and the client_secret_post and client_secret_basic token endpoint authentication methods.
Cloudflare stores the client secret encrypted. Users still authenticate to the upstream server with their own accounts when they connect through a portal.
Browser Run now includes a Playground in the Cloudflare dashboard. Use it to try Quick Actions against a live browser without creating a Worker, installing an SDK, or deploying code first.
The Playground helps you test a target URL or raw HTML input, tune viewport and page-load settings, preview the output, and copy working code for the same request.
You can also configure desktop, laptop, tablet, mobile, or custom viewport sizes, set browser scale, choose page-load conditions, set timeouts, and wait for selectors before running a request.
Select Show Code to generate the same request as cURL, TypeScript SDK, Python, or Workers Binding code. For example, a screenshot request can be copied as a Workers Binding call:
You can now rotate the broadcast credentials for a Stream live input without changing the live input identifier.
Use key rotation when live input credentials may have been shared with the wrong audience, exposed in client code or a screenshare, or need to be refreshed as part of your security process. Rotating keys revokes the old credentials, disconnects broadcasts using stale credentials, and returns refreshed credentials in the API response.
To rotate keys for a live input, make a POST request to the rotate_keys endpoint:
curl --request POST \https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/{account_id}/stream/live_inputs/{live_input_identifier}/rotate_keys \--header "Authorization: Bearer <API_TOKEN>"
Live input responses now also include keysRotatedAt, which indicates when the live input keys were last rotated. This field is omitted for live inputs whose keys have never been rotated.
wrangler check startup now reports your Worker's raw and compressed bundle sizes. It also summarizes local CPU activity during startup directly in your terminal.
Large bundles and costly startup work can introduce cold-start latency, so use this command to find code and large dependencies that slow your Worker before it handles requests.
The summary includes sampled, active, garbage collection, and idle time. Wrangler continues to save a .cpuprofile file for detailed flamegraph analysis in Chrome DevTools or VS Code.
⛅️ wrangler 4.116.0───────────────────────────────────────────────├ Building your Worker│ Worker Built! 🎉│├ Analysing│ Startup phase analysed││ Bundle: 7171.25 KiB / gzip: 2197.00 KiB││ Local startup profile:│ Profile window: 70.3 ms│ Sampled time: 70.3 ms│ Active: 38.5 ms (including 3.7 ms garbage collection)│ Idle: 31.8 ms│ Samples: 36││ CPU Profile has been written to worker-startup.cpuprofile.

The profile runs locally, so its duration will differ from startup time on Cloudflare. For authoritative startup time, deploy your Worker or upload a version.
Available in Wrangler version 4.116.0 or later. For more information, refer to wrangler check startup.
MCP server portals now support four Code Mode policies: Off, Opt-in, On by default, and Enforced. Admins can choose whether Code Mode is unavailable, optional, enabled by default, or required for every session.
Existing portals retain their current behavior. Portals that previously allowed Code Mode use Opt-in, while portals that did not allow Code Mode use Off. New portals also use Opt-in by default.
Clients turn on Code Mode for an Opt-in portal with ?codemode=search_and_execute. The On by default policy lets clients opt out with ?codemode=off, which avoids nested code execution when a client runs its own Code Mode implementation. The Off and Enforced policies ignore client overrides.
The Cloudflare API exposes these policies through the code_mode field:
{ "code_mode": "default_on"}
The supported values are off, opt_in, default_on, and enforced. The previous allow_code_mode boolean is deprecated.
For configuration details and client behavior, refer to Code Mode policies.
You can now use AI Search directly from popular agent frameworks, adding grounded retrieval to an existing app instead of calling the REST API by hand. The new Agents section has guides for the Vercel AI SDK, LangChain, and the Cloudflare Agents SDK. The AI SDK integration is a new package, and the LangChain integration is a new retriever in the existing langchain-cloudflare package.
Vercel AI SDK
The ai-search-provider ↗ package connects AI Search to the AI SDK, and targets AI SDK v6 (ai@^6). Pass instance.chat() to generateText or streamText to generate a response grounded in your indexed content, with the retrieved chunks returned as sources. You can also expose instance.search() as a tool for agent loops.
The langchain-cloudflare package (PyPI ↗, GitHub ↗) provides CloudflareAISearchRetriever, a standard LangChain retriever backed by AI Search. Use it on its own, wrap it with create_retriever_tool to give an agent a search tool, or drop it into a RAG chain. It works with REST credentials or a Worker binding inside a Python Worker.
from langchain_cloudflare import CloudflareAISearchRetrieverretriever = CloudflareAISearchRetriever( account_id=ACCOUNT_ID, api_token=API_TOKEN, instance_name="knowledge-base", retrieval_type="hybrid",)docs = retriever.invoke("How do I configure Workers AI?")
Cloudflare Agents SDK
The Cloudflare Agents SDK could already reach AI Search through the Workers binding. The new guide walks through building a stateful chat agent that provisions its own instance, indexes content, and searches it from a tool.
import { tool } from "ai";import { z } from "zod";const instance = env.AI_SEARCH.get("knowledge-base");// Expose AI Search to the agent's model as a tool it can call.const searchKnowledgeBase = tool({ description: "Search the knowledge base for relevant content.", inputSchema: z.object({ query: z.string() }), execute: ({ query }) => instance.search({ query }),});
import { tool } from "ai";import { z } from "zod";const instance = env.AI_SEARCH.get("knowledge-base");// Expose AI Search to the agent's model as a tool it can call.const searchKnowledgeBase = tool({ description: "Search the knowledge base for relevant content.", inputSchema: z.object({ query: z.string() }), execute: ({ query }) => instance.search({ query }),});
For the full walkthroughs, including creating an instance and indexing content, refer to the Agents guides.
Workers Builds now uses Node.js 24.18.0 by default. The build image preinstalls Node.js 22.23.2 and 24.18.0.
You can continue to override the default with the NODE_VERSION environment variable, an .nvmrc file, or a .node-version file. For more information, refer to Override default versions.
This release introduces new rules and updates existing threat signatures to provide targeted protections for vulnerabilities in Nuxt Server Island components and Alibaba Fastjson deserialization routines, alongside enhanced protections for cloud metadata Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) and obfuscated command injection attempts.
Key Findings
Nuxt Server Island - RCE(GHSA-9473-5f9j-94wq): An unauthenticated vulnerability in Nuxt Server Islands where remote attackers can supply arbitrary component names or props to endpoints. Manipulating these parameters allows unauthenticated component Remote Code Execution (RCE) on the server.
Alibaba Fastjson JSONType Remote Code Execution: A unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in Alibaba Fastjson (≤ 1.2.83) during JSON deserialization. Under default configurations, attackers can execute arbitrary system commands, bypassing traditional classpath and gadget-based defenses.
Generic Protections (SSRF & Command Injection): Added improved detection logic targeting Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in cloud-hosted applications, alongside new rules targeting obfuscated command injection patterns across request parameters.

Cloudflare is rolling out updated formatting for the data field in the 1.1.1.1 DoH JSON API (application/dns-json). During the roll out responses may use either the old or new format.
Human-readable display for additional record types
Several record types previously returned their data field in RFC 3597 ↗ generic hex encoding (\# <length> <hex>). These now use standard presentation format:
DNSSEC-related records now use numeric algorithm identifiers as defined in RFC 4034 ↗ instead of mnemonic names. This affects RRSIG, DS, CDS, DNSKEY, and CDNSKEY records. For example, RSASHA256 becomes 8, ECDSAP256SHA256 becomes 13, and ED25519 becomes 15. DS digest types also change from mnemonic to numeric: SHA-256 becomes 2.
Cloudflare's product-specific MCP servers now support the new MCP 2026-07-28 Specification. Each request runs on a fresh stateless server without an MCP protocol session or protocol-specific Durable Object.
The /mcp endpoint also accepts stateless requests from 2025 Streamable HTTP clients. Most clients can reconnect without configuration changes.
Use /mcp for new connections. Historical /sse URLs continue to work as aliases for the same Streamable HTTP handler, but they no longer serve the deprecated HTTP+SSE transport. If a client forces SSE transport, change it to Streamable HTTP or automatic transport detection.
Browser Run now supports structured handoff for Human in the Loop workflows. Using Cloudflare-specific CDP commands, your agent can signal that it needs help, a human steps in through Live View to handle the task, and the agent resumes once the work is done.
For agents running multi-step browser workflows, a single login wall or unexpected prompt can fail the entire run. Previously, scripts had to manage human intervention manually by sharing a Live View URL and polling for completion. Structured handoff replaces this with a formal pause-and-resume flow.
The following example requests human intervention for a login page and waits for the human to finish before continuing:
const cdp = await page.createCDPSession();// Get Live View URL for the human operatorconst { devtoolsFrontendUrl } = await cdp.send("Cloudflare.getLiveView", { mode: "tab",});console.log(`Human input needed: ${devtoolsFrontendUrl}`);// Request human intervention and wait for completionconst handoffComplete = new Promise((resolve) => { cdp.once("Cloudflare.handoffComplete", resolve);});await cdp.send("Cloudflare.handoff", { instructions: "Please log in with your credentials", timeout: 600000,});const result = await handoffComplete;console.log(result.success ? "Handoff complete" : `Failed: ${result.reason}`);
