CVE-2024-24784

A flaw was found in Go’s net/mail standard library package. The ParseAddressList function incorrectly handles comments (text within parentheses) within display names. Since this is a misalignment with conforming address parsers, it can result in different trust decisions made by programs using different parsers.
