CVE-2023-27043 is an improper input validation vulnerability in Python's email module through version 3.11.3. The email address parser in email/_parseaddr.py incorrectly handles email addresses containing special characters, causing an incorrect portion of an RFC 2822 header to be interpreted as the addr-spec value. Applications that rely on this parsed value to enforce domain-based email-verification restrictions may accept an attacker-controlled address as belonging to an authorized domain.
