Traffic Source selector in Gateway policies
Gateway HTTP and Network policies now include a Traffic Source selector that identifies how traffic reaches Cloudflare, allowing administrators to write policies targeting specific on-ramp methods like the Cloudflare One Client, Mesh connectors, MCP portals, and proxy endpoints. A new Browser Isolation selector is also available to apply different policy behavior to isolated traffic.
Gateway HTTP and Network policies now include a Traffic Source selector that identifies how traffic reaches Cloudflare. This allows administrators to write policies that target specific on-ramp methods - for example, applying different rules to traffic arriving via the Cloudflare One Client compared to traffic routed through an MCP portal or a proxy endpoint.
Available traffic source values
| UI name | API value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Device client | device_client |
Traffic from the Cloudflare One Client (WARP) |
| Mesh | mesh |
Traffic from a Cloudflare Mesh connector |
| Cloudflare WAN | cloudflare_wan |
Traffic from Cloudflare WAN (Magic WAN) |
| Clientless RDP | clientless_rdp |
Traffic from a clientless RDP session |
| Proxy endpoint | proxy_endpoint |
Traffic from a proxy endpoint (PAC file) |
| Clientless Browser Isolation | agentless_biso |
Traffic from clientless Browser Isolation |
| MCP portal | mcp_portal |
Traffic from an MCP portal |
The selector uses the net.onramp.type API field in both HTTP and Network policies.
| UI name | API example |
|---|---|
| Traffic Source | net.onramp.type == "device_client" |
Browser Isolation selector
A Browser Isolation selector is also available in Network and HTTP policies. This selector identifies whether the current session is running inside Remote Browser Isolation, allowing administrators to apply different policy behavior to isolated traffic.
| UI name | API example |
|---|---|
| Browser Isolation | net.is_isolated == true |

DNS - Configure Advanced Custom Nameservers with nameserver sets
Nameserver sets are now available in beta for Enterprise accounts, allowing you to group custom nameserver names with Cloudflare-assigned IP addresses and assign them to multiple zones. This new approach replaces legacy custom_ns sets with reusable, immutable objects that support up to 3 IPv4 and 3 IPv6 addresses per nameserver and can leverage Advanced anycast network groups for improved resiliency.
Emergency WAF managed rule for active RCE vulnerability
Cloudflare released an emergency WAF update with a new managed rule to block exploitation of a critical remote code execution vulnerability in popular web frameworks. The Generic Rules - Remote Code Execution detection prevents attackers from executing arbitrary system commands via malicious input with invalid path sequences.
Cloudflare API MCP server sends Workers Issues as MCP Events
The Cloudflare API MCP server now exposes Workers Issues as MCP Events through webhook subscriptions, allowing agents to receive real-time notifications when production failures are detected without polling. Clients can subscribe to cloudflare.alert.workers_observability_real_time_issue scoped to an account or individual Worker.
