An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-102471 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Eclipse Vert.x. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-102471/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-102471/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-102471","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-102471/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-102471","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-762q-q3hx-6c35","GHSA-rm5c-2c7f-gc5g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Vert.x mail client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can inject CRLF sequences into SMTP headers to manipulate outgoing email content and structure via the Vert.x mail client library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"eclipse","cpe":[{"product":"vert.x","vendor":"eclipse"}],"cvss":{"score":6.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-93","name":"Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences"}],"description":"In Eclipse Vert.x versions [4.0.0, 4.5.34] or [5.0.0,5.0.12] or [5.1.0,5.1.9] or [5.2.0, 5.2.0], the vertx-mail-client does not sanitize CR (\\r) or LF (\\n) characters in user-supplied email header names and values before writing them into the SMTP DATA section.
