Description

A flaw was found in Django. An on-path network attacker could exploit a vulnerability in `django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend` where a partially-initialized connection is reused after a failed `STARTTLS` handshake when `fail_silently=True`. This could allow the attacker to intercept and read email content, leading to information disclosure.
