CVE-2018-1294 (GCVE-0-2018-1294)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2018-03-20 17:00 – Updated: 2024-09-16 22:31
VLAI?
Summary
If a user of Apache Commons Email (typically an application programmer) passes unvalidated input as the so-called "Bounce Address", and that input contains line-breaks, then the email details (recipients, contents, etc.) might be manipulated. Mitigation: Users should upgrade to Commons-Email 1.5. You can mitigate this vulnerability for older versions of Commons Email by stripping line-breaks from data, that will be passed to Email.setBounceAddress(String).
Severity ?
No CVSS data available.
