Doc Text:
A flaw was found in nodemailer. A remote attacker can bypass recipient domain restrictions by submitting specially crafted email addresses containing folding whitespace or comments in the domain name. Because the address parser improperly truncates the domain, emails pass security validation checks but are delivered to an attacker-controlled address under the application's sender identity, potentially leading to information disclosure.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-11-10 19:56:32 UTC
Nodemailer 3.0.0 before 10.4.1 contains an address parsing flaw in addressparser that truncates domains at folding whitespace or comments before a dot, allowing attackers to bypass recipient domain restrictions. Attackers can submit crafted to, cc, bcc or replyTo addresses that pass RFC 5322 domain checks but deliver mail to an attacker-chosen address under the application's sender identity.
