Replace each stray <CR> or <LF> character in message +content with a space character, to prevent outbound SMTP smuggling, +and to make the evaluation of Postfix-added DKIM or other signatures +independent from how a remote mail server handles such characters. +

+ +

SMTP does not allow such characters unless they are part of a +<CR><LF> sequence, and different mail systems handle +such stray characters in an implementation-dependent manner. Stray +<CR> or <LF> characters could be used for outbound +SMTP smuggling, where an attacker uses a Postfix server to send +message content with a non-standard End-of-DATA sequence that +triggers inbound SMTP smuggling at a remote SMTP server.

+ +

The replacement happens before all other content management, +and before Postfix may add a DKIM etc. signature; if the signature +were created first, the replacement could invalidate the signature. +

+ +

In addition to preventing SMTP smuggling, replacing stray +<CR> or <LF> characters ensures that the result of +signature validation by later mail system will not depend on how +that mail system handles those stray characters in an +implementation-dependent manner.

smtpd_forbid_bare_newline +(default: Postfix < 3.9: no)
+ +

Reject or restrict input lines from an SMTP client that end in +<LF> instead of the standard <CR><LF>. Such line +endings are commonly allowed with UNIX-based SMTP servers, but they +violate RFC 5321, and allowing such line endings can make a server +vulnerable to +SMTP smuggling.

+ +
normalize

This maintains compatibility +with many legitimate SMTP client applications that send a mix of +standard and non-standard line endings, but will fail to receive +email from client implementations that do not terminate DATA content +with the standard End-of-DATA sequence +<CR><LF>.<CR><LF>.

Such clients +can be excluded with smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions.
+ +
yes
Compatibility alias for normalize.

reject
Require the standard End-of-DATA +sequence <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>. Reject a command +or message content when a line contains bare <LF>, log a "bare +<LF> received" error, and reply with the SMTP status code in +$smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_reject_code.

This will reject +email from SMTP clients that send any non-standard line endings +such as web applications, netcat, or load balancer health checks. +

This will also reject email from services that use BDAT +to send MIME text containing a bare newline (RFC 3030 Section 3 +requires canonical MIME format for text message types, defined in +RFC 2045 Sections 2.7 and 2.8).

Such clients can be +excluded with smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions (or, in the case +of BDAT violations, BDAT can be selectively disabled with +smtpd_discard_ehlo_keyword_address_maps, or globally disabled with +smtpd_discard_ehlo_keywords).
+ +
no (default)
Do not require the standard +End-of-DATA +sequence <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>. Always process +a bare <LF> as if the client sent <CR><LF>. This +option is fully backwards compatible, but is not recommended for +an Internet-facing SMTP server, because it is vulnerable to SMTP smuggling. +

+ +
normalize
Require the standard +End-of-DATA sequence <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>. +Otherwise, allow command or message content lines ending in the +non-standard <LF>, and process them as if the client sent the +standard <CR><LF>.

This maintains compatibility +with many legitimate SMTP client applications that send a mix of +standard and non-standard line endings, but will fail to receive +email from client implementations that do not terminate DATA content +with the standard End-of-DATA sequence +<CR><LF>.<CR><LF>.

Such clients +can be excluded with smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions.
+ +
yes
Compatibility alias for normalize.
+ +
reject
Require the standard End-of-DATA +sequence <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>. Reject a command +or message content when a line contains bare <LF>, log a "bare +<LF> received" error, and reply with the SMTP status code in +$smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_reject_code.

This will reject +email from SMTP clients that send any non-standard line endings +such as web applications, netcat, or load balancer health checks. +

This will also reject email from services that use BDAT +to send MIME text containing a bare newline (RFC 3030 Section 3 +requires canonical MIME format for text message types, defined in +RFC 2045 Sections 2.7 and 2.8).

Such clients can be +excluded with smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions (or, in the case +of BDAT violations, BDAT can be selectively disabled with +smtpd_discard_ehlo_keyword_address_maps, or globally disabled with +smtpd_discard_ehlo_keywords).
+ +
no (default)
Do not require the standard +End-of-DATA +sequence <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>. Always process +a bare <LF> as if the client sent <CR><LF>. This +option is fully backwards compatible, but is not recommended for +an Internet-facing SMTP server, because it is vulnerable to SMTP smuggling. +
+ +
+ +

Recommended settings:

+ +
+
+# Require the standard End-of-DATA sequence <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>.
+# Otherwise, allow bare <LF> and process it as if the client sent
+# <CR><LF>.
+#
+# This maintains compatibility with many legitimate SMTP client
+# applications that send a mix of standard and non-standard line
+# endings, but will fail to receive email from client implementations
+# that do not terminate DATA content with the standard End-of-DATA
+# sequence <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>.
+#
+# Such clients can be allowlisted with smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions.
+# The example below allowlists SMTP clients in trusted networks.
+#
+smtpd_forbid_bare_newline = normalize
+smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions = $mynetworks
+
+
+ +

Alternative:

+ +
+
+# Reject input lines that contain <LF> and log a "bare <LF> received"
+# error. Require that input lines end in <CR><LF>, and require the
+# standard End-of-DATA sequence <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>.
+#
+# This will reject email from SMTP clients that send any non-standard
+# line endings such as web applications, netcat, or load balancer
+# health checks.
+#
+# This will also reject email from services that use BDAT to send
+# MIME text containing a bare newline (RFC 3030 Section 3 requires

+#
+# Such clients can be allowlisted with smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions.
+# The example below allowlists SMTP clients in trusted networks.
+#
+smtpd_forbid_bare_newline = reject
+smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions = $mynetworks
+#
+# Alternatively, in the case of BDAT violations, BDAT can be selectively
+# disabled with smtpd_discard_ehlo_keyword_address_maps, or globally
+# disabled with smtpd_discard_ehlo_keywords.
+#
+# smtpd_discard_ehlo_keyword_address_maps = cidr:/path/to/file

This feature with settings yes and no is available +in Postfix 3.8.4, 3.7.9, 3.6.13, and 3.5.23. Additionally, the +settings reject, and normalize are available with +Postfix ≥ 3.9, 3.8.5, 3.7.10, 3.6.14, and 3.5.24.

+ +%PARAM smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_exclusions $mynetworks + +

Exclude the specified clients from smtpd_forbid_bare_newline +enforcement. This setting uses the same syntax and parent-domain +matching behavior as mynetworks.

+ +

This feature is available in Postfix ≥ 3.9, 3.8.4, 3.7.9, +3.6.13, and 3.5.23.

+ +%PARAM smtpd_forbid_bare_newline_reject_code 550 + +

+The numerical Postfix SMTP server response code when rejecting a +request with "smtpd_forbid_bare_newline = reject". +Specify a 5XX status code (521 to disconnect). +

+ +

This feature is available in Postfix ≥ 3.9, 3.8.5, 3.7.10, +3.6.14, and 3.5.24.

+ +%PARAM cleanup_replace_stray_cr_lf yes + +

Replace each stray <CR> or <LF> character in message +content with a space character, to prevent outbound SMTP smuggling, +and to make the evaluation of Postfix-added DKIM or other signatures +independent from how a remote mail server handles such characters. +

+ +

SMTP does not allow such characters unless they are part of a +<CR><LF> sequence, and different mail systems handle +such stray characters in an implementation-dependent manner. Stray +<CR> or <LF> characters could be used for outbound +SMTP smuggling, where an attacker uses a Postfix server to send +message content with a non-standard End-of-DATA sequence that +triggers inbound SMTP smuggling at a remote SMTP server.

+ +

The replacement happens before all other content management, +and before Postfix may add a DKIM etc. signature; if the signature +were created first, the replacement could invalidate the signature. +

+ +

In addition to preventing SMTP smuggling, replacing stray +<CR> or <LF> characters ensures that the result of +signature validation by later mail system will not depend on how +that mail system handles those stray characters in an +implementation-dependent manner.

+ +

This feature is available in Postfix ≥ 3.9, 3.8.5, 3.7.10, +3.6.14, and 3.5.24.
