Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Python Library Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: billiejoex (billiejoex) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: DoS smtpd vulnerability Initial Comment: Method "collect_incoming_data" of "SMTPChannel" class should stop buffering if received lines are too long (possible Denial-of-Service attacks). Without truncating such buffer a simple malicious script sending extremely long lines without "\r\n" terminator could easily saturate system resources. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1745035&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
