Hi,

Appendix A of draft-ietf-uta-email-deep-05 has the following wording:

   Although STARTTLS appears only slightly more complex than separate-
   port TLS, we again learned the lesson that complexity is the enemy of
   security in the form of the STARTTLS command injection vulnerability
   (CERT vulnerability ID #555316).

I suggest to write "Section 2.2 of [RFC7457]" instead of "CERT vulnerability ID #555316". Indeed, RFC 7457 properly references CVE-2011-0411 and what CVE is, so it is best to just point to it.
