Issue summary: When the X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_email is called by an
application to validate a crafted e-mail address, such as during S/MIME
message validation, an out of bounds read can happen.
Impact summary: This out of bounds read will not directly exfiltrate
the data read to the attacker so the most likely result is a crash and
a Denial of Service.
An internal helper function called from X509_VERIFY_PARAM_[set|add]_email()
used a wrong length when validating the local part of an email address.
This could cause the 64 octet limit on the local part of an email address
to be not enforced, or cause an out of bound read and potentially a crash.
The bug is reachable via S-MIME validation with a crafted From: address
supplied in an email message that can potentially cause a crash.
No FIPS modules are affected by this issue as the affected code is outside
the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.

Title: OpenSSL, Description: Resumen del problema: Cuando una aplicación llama a X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_email para validar una dirección de correo electrónico manipulada, como durante la validación de mensajes S/MIME, puede ocurrir una lectura fuera de límites.
Resumen del impacto: Esta lectura fuera de límites no exfiltrará directamente los datos leídos al atacante, por lo que el resultado más probable es un fallo y una denegación de servicio.
Una función auxiliar interna llamada desde X509_VERIFY_PARAM_[set|add]_email() utilizó una longitud incorrecta al validar la parte local de una dirección de correo electrónico. Esto podría causar que no se aplicara el límite de 64 octetos en la parte local de una dirección de correo electrónico, o causar una lectura fuera de límites y potencialmente un fallo.
El error es alcanzable a través de la validación S-MIME con una dirección From: manipulada proporcionada en un mensaje de correo electrónico que puede causar potencialmente un fallo.
Ningún módulo FIPS se ve afectado por este problema, ya que el código afectado está fuera del límite del módulo FIPS de OpenSSL.
