"The email module of Python through 3.11.3 incorrectly parses e-mail
addresses that contain a special character. The wrong portion of an
RFC2822 header is identified as the value of the addr-spec. In some
applications, an attacker can bypass a protection mechanism in which
application access is granted only after verifying receipt of e-mail
to a specific domain (e.g., only @company.example.com addresses may be
used for signup). This occurs in email/_parseaddr.py in recent
versions of Python.
