Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for libplack-perl.

CVE-2026-7381[0]:
| Plack::Middleware::XSendfile versions through 1.0053 for Perl can
| allow client-controlled path rewriting.
| Plack::Middleware::XSendfile allows the variation setting (sendfile
| type) to be set by the client via the X-Sendfile-Type header, if it
| is not considered in the middleware constructor or the Plack
| environment.  A malicious client can set the X-Sendfile-Type header
| to "X-Accel-Redirect" to services running behind nginx reverse
| proxies, and then set the X-Accel-Mapping to map the path to an
| arbitrary file on the server.  Since 1.0053,
| Plack::Middleware::XSendfile is deprecated and will be removed from
| future releases of Plack.  This is similar to CVE-2025-61780 for
| Rack::Sendfile, although Plack::Middleware::XSendfile has some
| mitigations that disallow regular expressions to be used in the
| mapping, and only apply the mapping for the "X-Accel-Redirect" type.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
