CVE-2026-45755: Symfony's Mailtrap Mailer Webhook Parser Never Verifies the X-Mt-Signature HMAC — Unauthenticated Webhook Event Injection

May 28, 2026

The Mailtrap mailer bridge ships a webhook request parser used to authenticate and decode the event callbacks Mailtrap POSTs to an application’s webhook endpoint. Its doParse(Request $request, #[\SensitiveParameter] string $secret) method receives the configured webhook secret but never reads it; it decodes and returns the payload unconditionally, ignoring the X-Mt-Signature HMAC header Mailtrap sends with each request.

As a result, an application that wires up the Mailtrap webhook endpoint accepts any POST to that URL, even when a signing secret is configured (the recommended setup). An attacker who knows the endpoint exists can submit forged event payloads, fake delivery / bounce / open / click / spam events, leading to suppression-list corruption, delivery-metrics fraud, etc.
