CVE-2024-6923

A vulnerability was found in the email module that uses Python language. The email module doesn't properly quote new lines in email headers. This flaw allows an attacker to inject email headers that could, among other possibilities, add hidden email destinations or inject content into the email, impacting data confidentiality and integrity.

Versions of python36:3.6/python36 as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 are marked as 'Not affected' as they just provide "symlinks" to the main python3 component, which provides the actual interpreter of the Python programming language.
