CVE-2016-0772 is fixed in Python 3.5 on 1 platform by Python 3.5 3.5.2 (version 3.5.2), released June 26, 2016. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
The smtplib library in CPython (aka Python) before 2.7.12, 3.x before 3.4.5, and 3.5.x before 3.5.2 does not return an error when StartTLS fails, which might allow man-in-the-middle attackers to bypass the TLS protections by leveraging a network position between the client and the registry to block the StartTLS command, aka a "StartTLS stripping attack."
