CVE-2026-53533
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
aiosmtplib is an asynchronous SMTP client for use with asyncio. Prior to 5.1.1, SMTP.mail(), SMTP.rcpt(), SMTP.vrfy(), and SMTP.expn() send caller-supplied addresses without rejecting embedded CR or LF bytes. Data after the line break is framed as additional standalone SMTP command lines, allowing an attacker who influences an envelope sender or recipient to inject commands such as MAIL FROM, RCPT TO, RSET, DATA, or AUTH. SMTP.sendmail() and SMTP.send() without a Message object pass addresses through the affected methods, while SMTP.send_message() is not affected. Successful injection can desynchronize the command-response pipeline, hang the SMTP instance, or send an arbitrary message without requiring attacker control of the SMTP server. This issue is fixed in version 5.1.1.

"value": "aiosmtplib es un cliente SMTP asíncrono para usar con asyncio. Antes de la versión 5.1.1, SMTP.mail(), SMTP.rcpt(), SMTP.vrfy(), y SMTP.expn() envían direcciones proporcionadas por el llamador sin rechazar bytes CR o LF incrustados. Los datos después del salto de línea se enmarcan como líneas de comando SMTP independientes adicionales, permitiendo a un atacante que influye en un remitente o destinatario de sobre inyectar comandos como MAIL FROM, RCPT TO, RSET, DATA, o AUTH. SMTP.sendmail() y SMTP.send() sin un objeto Message pasan las direcciones a través de los métodos afectados, mientras que SMTP.send_message() no se ve afectado. La inyección exitosa puede desincronizar la tubería de comando-respuesta, colgar la instancia SMTP, o enviar un mensaje arbitrario sin requerir el control del atacante del servidor SMTP. Este problema está corregido en la versión 5.1.1."
