Mozilla Thunderbird Multiple Vulnerabilities

TITLE:
Mozilla Thunderbird Multiple Vulnerabilities
SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA21228

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/21228/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access, Cross Site Scripting

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Mozilla Thunderbird 0.x
http://secunia.com/product/2637/
Mozilla Thunderbird 1.0.x
http://secunia.com/product/9735/
Mozilla Thunderbird 1.5.x
http://secunia.com/product/4652/

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.

For more information, see vulnerabilities #1, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #9,
#10, and #11:
SA19783

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.


PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
