CVE-2026-45712: Mailpit: Concurrent map read & write in proxy CSS rewriter - remote unauth crash (fatal error: concurrent map read and map write)

May 19, 2026 (updated September 2, 2026)

The screenshot/print proxy (/proxy?data=…) maintains a package-level assets map[string]MessageAssets cache, but reads the map without holding assetsMutex while a long-running cleanup goroutine and (re-entrant) CSS-rewriting code path concurrently write to it under the lock. When the unsynchronized read coincides with a synchronized write, Go’s runtime raises fatal error: concurrent map read and map write — a runtime.throw that is not recoverable by http.Server’s handler-panic recover. The whole Mailpit process exits, taking the SMTP, POP3 and HTTP listeners down with it.
