New submission from Giampaolo Rodola':
By looking through the smtplib module code I think I've found a
potential issue in the SSLFakeFile class code since there's a while loop
which is supposed to be stopped only when the "\n" character is encountered:
def readline(self):
str = ""
chr = None
while chr != "\n":
chr = self.sslobj.read(1)
str += chr
return str
The patch in attachment just adds a break statement to prevent the while
loop to hang forever in case the "\n" character is never encountered.
