The issue becomes exploitable when the attacker can influence a MailboxAddress (MAIL FROM / RCPT TO) value that is later serialized to an SMTP session. RFC 5321 explicitly defines the SMTP mailbox local-part grammar and does not permit CR (13) or LF (10) inside Quoted-string (qtextSMTP and quoted-pairSMTP ranges exclude control characters). SMTP commands are terminated by <CRLF, making CRLF injection in command arguments particularly dangerous. Details 1) RFC 5321 local-part grammar prohibits CR/LF in quoted-string RFC 5321 defines: When the local part is a quoted…
