CVE-2026-77136
CriticalCVSS 9.5Summary
The extension passes the raw value of a form field configured as "This field contains the name of the sender" directly into a Fluid View as template source, without any sanitization, and renders it. An anonymous, unauthenticated user can submit Fluid template syntax in that field to execute arbitrary Fluid ViewHelpers leading to disclosure of server configuration, environment variables and application source, and potentially remote code execution. Exploitation requires only that a form field is configured as the sender_name field, a common and default-adjacent Powermail configuration. No authentication or user interaction beyond a normal form submission is required. This vulnerability is reported to be actively exploited in the wild.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can obtain sensitive information about the server and application, and in some cases execute remote code, potentially leading to full system compromise.
Recommendation
Immediately update the Powermail extension to a version containing a fix and check for signs of exploitation.
