DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Mozilla Thunderbird,
which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site
scripting attacks and compromise a user's system.

Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities requires that
JavaScript is enabled in mails (not default setting).
A boundary error has also been reported in the handling of VCard
attachments. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer
overflow via a malicious VCard with a specially crafted base64 field
that causes a crash and may allow execution of arbitrary code.
SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.5.0.5.
