Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-11-14 20:15 - Updated: 2026-10-18 20:10
Severity
Summary
A vulnerability was identified in the email parsing library due to improper handling of specially formatted recipient email addresses. An attacker can exploit this flaw by crafting a recipient address that embeds an external address within quotes. This causes the application to misdirect the email to the attacker's external address instead of the intended internal recipient. This could lead to a significant data leak of sensitive information and allow an attacker to bypass security filters and access controls.

Un atacante puede explotar esta falla al crear una direcci\u00f3n de destinatario que incrusta una direcci\u00f3n externa entre comillas. Esto provoca que la aplicaci\u00f3n redirija err\u00f3neamente el correo electr\u00f3nico a la direcci\u00f3n externa del atacante en lugar del destinatario interno previsto. Esto podr\u00eda conducir a una fuga de datos significativa de informaci\u00f3n sensible y permitir a un atacante eludir los filtros de seguridad y los controles de acceso."
