Nodemailer addressparser: O(n^2) on comment-joined addresses enables a remote DoS (reachable via mailparser)

### Summary `nodemailer/lib/addressparser` parses one shape of address in O(n^2) time. A single ~640 KB address value blocks the Node.js event loop for roughly 7 seconds. And it is reachable without auth: mailparser feeds inbound email headers straight into this parser, so one crafted email is enough to stall a service that parses mail. ### Details The parser builds a single address by accumulating its atoms into one string. When the atoms are separated by RFC 5322 comments, like `a@b(c)@b(c)@b(c)...`, every atom re-joins that same growing string. The join check in `src/addressparser/index.ts`: ```js const joins = prevToken && prevToken.noBreak && parts.length && (prevToken.value !== ')' || parts[parts.length - 1].slice(-1) === '@' || token.value.charAt(0) === '@'); ``` The issue is the order of the last two operands. `parts[parts.length - 1].slice(-1)` runs before the cheap `token.value.charAt(0)`. `slice(-1)` has to flatten the accumulator to read its last character → O(current length) → and that runs on every token → O(n^2) over the whole value. Since `||` is left to right, the cheap `charAt(0)` that would short-circuit never gets the chance. The chain: long comment-joined address → one growing accumulator → `slice(-1)` re-flattens it on every token → quadratic parse time. ### PoC Isolated, just the parser (`npm i nodemailer@10.0.3`): ```js const addressparser = require('nodemailer/lib/addressparser'); const s = Date.now(); addressparser('a' + '@b(c)'.repeat(130000)); cons
