File	packages/fuels-accounts/src/provider/cache.rs:267

Description: The provider cache in packages/fuels-accounts/src/provider/cache.rs uses time-based TTL expiry of approximately 11 seconds. No maximum entry count or memory size limit has been confirmed in the cache implementation. If the underlying data structure is an unbounded HashMap or similar growable collection, an attacker or high-traffic workload that triggers cache lookups with many distinct keys (e.g., thousands of unique account addresses or block heights) can cause the cache to grow without bound. At a request rate exceeding the TTL expiry rate, entries accumulate faster than they are evicted, eventually exhausting heap memory. Confidence is low because the full cache data structure was not directly inspected beyond the referenced lines.

PR Summary

Medium Risk
Medium risk because it changes the public TtlConfig API (new required node_info field) and alters caching behavior for node_info, which could affect downstream code and performance characteristics.

Overview
Introduces an independent cache TTL for node_info by extending TtlConfig with a new node_info duration (defaulting to 60s) and using it in CachedClient::node_info() instead of reusing the consensus-parameters TTL.

Updates CachedClient::clear() to also invalidate the node_info cache, and adjusts unit tests to construct TtlConfig with the new field.
