Bifrost
AktivOpen-source AI gateway that puts 20+ LLM providers and MCP tools behind one OpenAI-compatible API
Bifrost is a free, Apache 2.0 AI gateway from Maxim that puts 20+ model providers behind one OpenAI-compatible API, with virtual-key budgets, semantic caching, fallbacks and an MCP gateway. Conditional on hardening: management authentication is off by default, and JFrog disclosed two unauthenticated code-execution flaws that rely on it, CVE-2026-90898 (CVSS 9.8, fixed in 2.1.0) and CVE-2026-86242 (CVSS 8.1, fixed in 2.0.0). Right for platform teams that enable auth and patch.
A self-hosted gateway forwards OpenAI-compatible requests to 20+ LLM providers and wraps them in keys, budgets, routing and caching.
Ist es das Richtige für dich?
Gut für
- Moving an app across providers by changing only the base URL, through one OpenAI-compatible API over 20+ providers
- Controlling spend per key, team and customer with virtual keys, budgets and rate limits in the free edition
- Governing agent tool access: MCP gateway with tool approval controls and per-key MCP tool allow-lists
- Keeping traffic on your own infrastructure, with Docker, Kubernetes or Go binary deployment and air-gapped support on Enterprise
Nicht geeignet für
- Deployments left on defaults: management authentication is disabled by default, which JFrog says makes every caller a local admin
- Unpatched installs: HTTP transport releases before 2.1.0, including 1.6.x through 1.6.11, allow unauthenticated command execution through stdio MCP client registration (CVE-2026-90898, CVSS 9.8)
- Dynamically linked builds before 2.0.0 left on defaults: an unauthenticated POST to /api/plugins can make Bifrost download and load a remote shared object (CVE-2026-86242, CVSS 8.1)
- Buyers who need published enterprise pricing: Enterprise is priced through a demo request

Workflow-Rezepte
Close CVE-2026-90898 and CVE-2026-86242 on an existing gateway
Harden a Bifrost deployment along the lines JFrog recommends
- Upgrade the HTTP transport to 2.1.0 or later, which is past both fixes
- Set governance.auth_config.is_enabled to true
- Use strong credentials for the management API
- Restrict management API access to trusted networks
- If you do not need plugins, run the statically linked binary or the official Docker image rather than a dynamically linked build
- If the instance ever ran exposed with authentication off, treat it as compromised and rotate virtual keys and provider credentials
