Well-crafted inputs reaching ParseAddress, ParseAddressList, and ParseDate were able to trigger excessive CPU exhaustion and memory allocations.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in Go standard library net/mail package allows remote unauthenticated attackers to exhaust CPU and memory resources via maliciously crafted email addresses or dates. The vulnerability affects ParseAddress, ParseAddressList, and ParseDate functions in Go versions prior to 1.25.10 and 1.26.0-1.26.2. Confirmed actively exploited (CISA KEV status not indicated; exploitation probability 0.02% per EPSS). Vendor-released patches available in Go 1.25.10 and 1.26.3.
Technical ContextAI
The Go standard library's net/mail package provides RFC 5322-compliant parsing of email messages, addresses, and date formats. This vulnerability resides in three parsing functions (ParseAddress, ParseAddressList, ParseDate) that process external email data. When these functions encounter specially crafted inputs, they trigger algorithmic complexity issues leading to excessive CPU consumption and uncontrolled memory allocation. The affected CPE (cpe:2.3:a:go_standard_library:net/mail) indicates this is a core standard library component used by any Go application that parses email messages or headers. The vulnerability class appears to involve resource exhaustion through crafted input, though no CWE mapping was provided. This affects applications using these functions to parse untrusted email data from network sources, SMTP servers, IMAP/POP3 clients, email parsing APIs, or any system ingesting email addresses or date headers.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to Go 1.26.3 or Go 1.25.10 which contain fixes for the resource exhaustion issue in net/mail parsing functions. Recompile all affected applications with the patched Go version to incorporate the standard library fix. For applications that cannot immediately upgrade, implement rate limiting on email parsing operations to restrict the number of ParseAddress, ParseAddressList, and ParseDate calls per client or time window (trade-off: legitimate high-volume email processing may be impacted). Deploy resource constraints using cgroups or container limits to cap CPU and memory consumption for processes handling email parsing (trade-off: may cause parsing failures under legitimate load spikes). Consider input validation to reject email addresses or date strings exceeding reasonable length thresholds before passing to parsing functions (trade-off: may block legitimate but unusual RFC 5322-compliant formats).
