40 | Description |
41 | =========== |
42 | |
43 | Several vulnerabilities were found and fixed in Mozilla Thunderbird. |
44 | For details, please consult the references below. |
45 | |
46 | Impact |
47 | ====== |
48 | |
49 | A remote attacker could craft malicious emails that would leverage |
50 | these issues to inject and execute arbitrary script code with elevated |
51 | privileges, spoof content, and possibly execute arbitrary code with the |
52 | rights of the user running the application. |
53 | |
54 | Workaround |
55 | ========== |
56 | |
57 | There are no known workarounds for all the issues at this time. |
58 | |
59 | Resolution |
60 | ========== |
61 | |
62 | All Mozilla Thunderbird users should upgrade to the latest version: |
63 | |
64 | # emerge --sync |
65 | # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-1.5.0.4" |
66 | |
67 | All Mozilla Thunderbird binary users should upgrade to the latest |
68 | version: |
69 | |
70 | # emerge --sync |
71 | # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-bin-1.5.0.4" |
72 | |
73 | Note: There is no stable fixed version for the Alpha architecture yet. |
74 | Users of Mozilla Thunderbird on Alpha should consider unmerging it |
75 | until such a version is available. |
