CVE-2026-92596

8.7 highEPSS 0.8%

High (8.7). EPSS 0.8% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in nodemailer 9.1.0.

Nodemailer before 9.1.0 contains a quadratic time complexity vulnerability in the addressparser component that allows remote attackers to cause denial of service by supplying a crafted comma-separated address list. Attackers can send a single email with a large number of addresses to block the Node.js event loop for extended periods, consuming 100% CPU and freezing the process.
