A vulnerability was discovered in Python, an interactive high-level object-oriented language. CVE-2019-16056 The email module wrongly parses email addresses that contain multiple @ characters. An application that uses the email module and implements some kind of checks on the From/To headers of a message could be tricked into accepting an email address that should be denied.
