Synopsis ========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Mozilla Thunderbird, which may allow user-assisted arbitrary remote code execution.
Background ==========
Mozilla Thunderbird is a popular open-source email client from the Mozilla project.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 mozilla-thunderbird < 2.0.0.9 >= 2.0.0.9 2 mozilla-thunderbird-bin < 2.0.0.9 >= 2.0.0.9 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 affected packages on all of their supported architectures. -------------------------------------------------------------------
Description ===========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Mozilla Thunderbird's HTML browser engine (CVE-2007-5339) and JavaScript engine (CVE-2007-5340) that can be exploited to cause a memory corruption.
Impact ======
A remote attacker could entice a user to read a specially crafted email that could trigger one of the vulnerabilities, possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary code.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time for all of these issues, but some of them can be avoided by disabling JavaScript.
Resolution ==========
All Mozilla Thunderbird users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-2.0.0.9"
All Mozilla Thunderbird binary users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-bin-2.0.0.9"
