CVE-2026-115189 Details
Description
A server-side template injection vulnerability exists in the Twig theme rendering sandbox of Mautic. The sandbox introduced to restrict user-uploaded theme templates (the fix for GHSA-9fx4-7cmj-47vg) does not fully enforce its restrictions, allowing a crafted theme template to escape the sandbox. An authenticated user with the core:themes:create permission can upload a malicious theme whose template is later rendered, resulting in execution of arbitrary code on the server with the privileges of the web server process. This allows the attacker to execute operating system commands, read server-side files including configuration files and database credentials, write files, and reach internal services. In default installations the core:themes:create permission is granted to the Administrator role, and in multi-operator setups it may be delegated to other roles. This is an incomplete fix for GHSA-9fx4-7cmj-47vg.
A server-side template injection vulnerability has been identified in Mautic's Twig theme rendering sandbox. This vulnerability allows authenticated users with the core:themes:create permission to upload malicious theme templates that can escape the sandbox restrictions. Once uploaded, these templates can execute arbitrary code on the server with the privileges of the web server process. This vulnerability affects Mautic versions 1.3.0 through 5.2.12, 6.0.0 through 6.0.10, and 7.0.0 through 7.2.2.
Users can upgrade to Mautic versions 5.2.12, 6.0.10, or 7.2.2 to address this vulnerability. For legacy Mautic 4.4, the fix is available through the Extended Long-Term Support (ELTS) program. If an upgrade is not possible, the core:themes:create permission should be restricted to trusted administrator accounts and not delegated to operator-level roles.
